School is in Session

[welcomebackpotter]

Since school is starting I thought I would show this text book I have.

Its from Indiana University 1973.

 

The other required books for the class were:

The great Comic Book Heroes by Jules Feiffer

The Strenanko History of Comics By James Steranko

Green Lantern and Green Arrow #1

 

For now take this pop quiz and see how you do. (From the 2nd lesson in the book)

[Schmakt]

cool!

 

[seank]

We've been arguing over some of those questions for years. How could a bunch of college students expect to answer them briefly?

good to see public funding of education at work.

 

luckily we can import our engineers and scientists from India, Pakistan, Russia (not for long) and China (not for long), as well as about half the doctors in my neck of the woods.

 

don't want to be a downer, but seriously a whole class on this? maybe a couple of lectures (and a TON of reading!) in a course on 20th century pop culture.

 

and to think, some professor is being paid $100K+/- a year to teach this class along with 1 or 2 other similarly silly classes.

[Ze-man]

Cool book, and an infinite cover no less.

Not in that department, they don't earn that much ... Also, I'd like to remind you that they have other duties besides teaching ...

We don't import engineers and scientists. People come here to BECOME engineers and scientists. We still have by far the BEST education system in the world.

[Scrooge]

We still have by far the BEST post-secondary education system in the world.

 

I amended your statement for you ...

[Ares]

Question 13 is a little open ended!

Who has a better K-High School system?

 

I don't want to get smarmy about the whole issue, just want to have a healthy debate.

[Raphael]

those are great!

Let's switch the question around: Why do you think the US K - High School system is the best? Maybe you can convince me ...

I ask you a question, then you turn around and ask me the same question back....

 

Why should I answer? Convince me.....

[Mephisto]

I'd like to see Greggy's answer to number 6.

[CAP Freak]

Me too. I would like the answers in a Spoiler to check my work.
