Big scientific study of 160,000 people....discussing numbers....large percentage of college students operating at the 5th-grade level.
Then they add....same group....intellectually....think at the 10-year old level.
I paused over this yesterday.
It's been on my mind for several hours.
Numbers? 14-percent of US college students ranked at this 5th-grade level. They read at 10-year old level, and their comprehension at same level.
OECD study.
So...my 3 questions:
If this 'crew' is that stupid....does it mean that colleges are recruiting instructors to be 6th-grade level....just above the 5th grade level?
What happens after four years....do they graduate at 9th-grade high school level?
Finally....how exactly will we utilize a bunch of educated dumbasses?

How can we use them?
We definitely, absolutely, need more 'content creators' and 'influencers'!
.
Inevitably -- and probably pretty soon -- everybody on the entire planet will be a content-influencer person.
The very next day, the Internet collapses, and all the fifth-graders move back in with their parents.
.
An abject aside:
Sometimes, I think my gift of prophecy is a curse...
