Theunicornhunter 2 Posted July 5, 2003 OMG - I just watched the Jay Walking segment where he asked questions about the American Military and American History. People laughed but it is really scary how poorly educated Americans are. A related news story: CNN Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lollypop 0 Posted July 5, 2003 It was on our news about 12 months ago, that the University Professors and teachers were up in arms and complaining about having to give out passes and degrees to people who didn't deserve it. It seems that if students had paid for their courses, the teachers were under pressure to give them passes. And it's these people coming out of University and waving pieces of paper, that are teaching your kids today. :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Aren't students being taught the basics in school any more? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
master_q 0 Posted July 6, 2003 I saw that. I agree it is very scary. It was funny to watch, but when you think about it, it's scary. “What’s this world coming to?” Master Q StarTrek_Master_Q@yahoo.com Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
