I R D Prez.

I'm grading quizzes and essays, and I'm a little discouraged.

I occasionally have days when I wonder if maybe a person shouldn't be admitted to college unless he/she can demonstrate a good knowledge of how the language works, ie have a fairly large vocabulary and be able to construct a decent and understandable sentence.

But I guess if a person can be President without those skills, then I shouldn't be surprised that my students don't have them either.
