I was a horrible student before I went into the military. I did what
it took to pass. That was pretty much what I saw going on around me
too.
It did not take long before I figured out grades were important to the
military and I was the top recruit in boot camp and tutoring others in
FT school. I had a whole lot easier life.
Since then I am always at or near the top of my class.

I think most students would be well served by going to a military
school a while before they start college. You might start seeing "4
year" degrees in 2 or 3 years from those people.
The university system would never put up with it because there is a
lot of money in it for them to make college as slow as they can. You
pay by the hour not by the degree

I get it! More guns. That's the motivation. Give me a ****ing break.
You clearly don't give a **** about anyone else's life experience.
What about getting shot at in the inner city? I guess that doesn't
count.

I spent a lot more time in the inner city than you and I have been
shot at twice.

HOw the **** would you know that? Oh, I get it, you're the all knowing
all seeing one eyed oracle.

That is not what we were talking about tho is it?

How many of those inner city kids have the grades to get in college in
the first place? Graduation rates are in the mid 30% and most of them
barely read at the 8th grade level.

Yes, how many times? Do they have access to all the things that the
privliged white kids have in the burbs? Doubtful, and they get to
dodge bullets on the way home from school (the run down one on the
corner where the roof leaks and the teachers don't get hazzard pay).
Sounds like you're blaming the kids because they aren't in an
envirnment that gives them the opportunity to learn how to read.

If you do find a kid who can make it to college, I salute them. They
will have the desire to succeed and they have a very good chance of
actually getting something out of it.

And, **** the rest. They dont deserve help.

You're quite the humanitarian.
