#Grading
(The answer to grade inflation, btw, isn't "tougher" grading. It's recognizing that grading, especially letter grading--not a very old system--serves employers but not students. It incentivizes cheating & corruption. Other evaluative frameworks are possible.)

The right thinks they like harsh grading and grading on a curve because the white guys all assume they'd be on top of it. I think if they fully understood that women consistently outperform men GPA-wise, they'd take it back.
this week I spoke to a family member and realized that the very good U of M decision to hide first-semester grades is already getting turned into a dumb culture war thing.

this is an incredibly good decision that makes sense pedagogically. it gives them permission to learn when habits are forming.

My daughter thinks when The Professor, our foster dog, “does his business”, we should refer to it as “he’s grading papers” or “he’s preparing lecture notes.”

There's stuff in Andor Season 2, images, moments, as good as anything on television ever. Not grading on the Mandalorian curve, grading on the Mad Men curve.
