    Get a better haircut if you don’t want to feel marginalized.

    That was 1993. Trudeau was (still is?) prescient.

    Well, you’re in the wrong class. “Buzzwords 101” is down the hall.

    All us white folks in Canada are currently marginalized. When the police were asked why they are doing nothing to stop the protesters from shutting down the nation’s railroads, they replied, “We are following the guidelines for indigenous people’s demonstrations.”

    Northern Illinois University Test-blind Admissions

    “Starting with the fall 2021 freshman class, we’ll no longer consider ACT or SAT scores for general admission or merit scholarships. We’ll look at your high school GPA instead. Research shows that GPA is a better indicator of success in college.

    You may need to provide your ACT or SAT score for certain other scholarships. You’ll also need to provide it if you’re applying to the nursing program, a limited admission program." Now that those equalizing but pesky achievement tests have been eliminated, we can start working on the elimination of C, D, and F from the grading system.

    Do you suppose young Mr. Slocum is related to Mrs. Slocum of “Are You Being Served” fame?

    Ha. Apparently, if you are going to cheat for the students you might as well cheat big. They expect it, then they demand it and then your fired. Slippery slope, that.

    People are still identifying themselves as losers 27 years later.

    Just like Matt Groening, he has shown us a possible future while satirizing the (1993) present.

    I graduated from high school in 1963. I had an exact B average. I was 19th out of 186.

    Have we yet appreciated the danger of being able to “make” reality just by uttering our wishes?
