Who'd have thunk that Dooksucks "other" Carolina degree would end up by far the most prestigious.........

The IRB was correct to stop the research based on the lack of protections for the subjects. This is ralatively easily remedied though. It just means that the research must go through supervision to make sure the subjects privacy is protected. Instead of talking about timing, Willingham should simply agree to work with the supervisory board to make sure that the subject is protected (this is standard in all medical schools and in universities when dealing with confidential information). However, the SAT and ACT entrance data is there.

I'm older now and my mother's sick. It's easy for me to believe that right now.

UNC: Literacy research is flawed

"Willingham provided her research data to the university earlier this week. By Thursday, the school had released an analysis from its admissions office saying that more than 97 percent of 1,377 first-year student-athletes admitted through special-talent policies between 2004-12 met testing thresholds used in the CNN report -- a 400 on the SAT critical reading or writing test, or a 16 on the ACT -- about reading levels for first-year students nationally."

HOW did 3% get through if they didn't meet the minimum?

A&M's athletes probably study for a degree that Hedge could use, Agricultural Leadership or something. At most places there are petty jealousies because everybody knows that the athletes get assistance that others don't, or the star point guard stole your term paper on his way to the NBA, or something like that, but the idea that there are entire courses which don't meet? No way in hell, the faculty would whine and cry and squeal like pigs about it. Frankly it seems incredible that UNC has gotten away with it, basically. They planned out, set up registration for, presumably set up a documentation process in the school's catalogs etc to give out grades for these classes, etc, etc but it was all the work of only two people. Bullshit and amazing that anybody could buy it, and amazing that the faculty at UNC seem willing to look the other way.

Johnny Football took on line classes, or maybe his mom took the on line classes is more accurate.

Sliding scale...

Their high school gpa was high enough to allow a lower SAT/ACT score.

Britt taking 16 foot jump shot with time left on the shot clock is a terrible possession
