Tuesday, April 27
In her Commentary: Grades vs. Perfection on NPR : All Things Considered for Monday, April 26, 2004 we hear about a worried college professor: "Commentator Meredith Small is an anthropology professor at Cornell University and she was shocked when a student carrying a solid 'B' average came by her office to ask if she could drop her course. Small sees a rise in students for whom anything short of perfection is not enough -- and worries about what they'll find outside of school." And she says, "As a university professor, hundreds of students pass through my hands each year...." Yeeouch!
