Tuuk must be referring to the "special ed" classes some universities
hold for Asian students whose command of English is so ****-poor they
cannot figure out what is happening.
Universities hold these classes because they like the full tuition
dollars the sponsors of most "foreign" students pay.
One of the local colleges in this area holds a plethora of lower-level
classes "specially" for Asian students, to help them build up at least
minimal skills in English.
Note that I am not saying Asian students are dumb, ignorant, lazy, or
otherwise intellectually incapable. But many Asian students have a very,
very difficult time with English.
Look at Tuuk. He can barely read and write English, and he claims to be
a grad of a North American university. I presume there were no
comprehensive exams in language skills.

Merry Christmas to you Harry.

Yes Harry, I do believe you are correct on this assumption. My old school,
The University of Waterloo, does teach some English Language skills to first
year foreign students. Some of these students are indeed from Asia and
some are from Eastern European Countries or Mexico. Some of our top Asian
Students are from China and they are doing quite well in our schools. I
also believe that Mr. Tuuk is totally ignorant of how our school systems are
run. He also has a tendency to have verbal diarrhea.
