S4 E15 | Grade 'A' Hypocrisy: Faculty Politics and Eroding University Standards
Manage episode 419919280 series 2976992
This week Mike and Elizabeth discuss grade inflation and beliefs about teaching and learning, particularly among radical left college professors. A recently published survey of state university professors confirmed previously documented trends of declining standards and grade inflation. Political orientation emerged as the most useful predictor of beliefs and attitudes about these trends. We discuss the numerical findings, the open-ended responses, and authors' interpretation regarding diversity, equity, inclusion, merit, and the future of higher education.
