    All of us will care when the country has to depend on the products 
of today's education system.  Get ready for it.  The standards are so 
incredibly low that these graduates will not even know the buzz words 
of technology.

    The professors look the other way on all manner of things that were 
"cheating" when I got my education.  Copying from other students, 
lifting solutions from the Internet, putting all the test answers on 
one's programmable calculator, and other guarantees of ignorance are 
completely acceptable.

    The cruel world will reveal their error when it is too late for them 
or us to recover from it.

    It is not just in tech schools.  Can you imagine a cum laude English 
graduate who cannot spell or write a grammatical sentence?   Well, our 
family has just paid for one.
