Thanks for bringing it to our attention.<br /><br />Marcel, I understand your critique on the state of athletics, but your generalization of public education was a bit off. I teach at a public high school and I see students do amazing things every day! There's always room for improvement, but things are not as dismal as you would lead us to believe.<br /><br />-KarieMs. Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11503221105576005021noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5094967570243723764.post-68098847773392420642010-12-02T15:50:39.432-06:002010-12-02T15:50:39.432-06:00Jeff - Maybe so, but I had no trouble with the Won...Jeff - Maybe so, but I had no trouble with the Wonderlic.

I suspect that if I tried to take a test administered in today's classrooms, I might have trouble with some of the specialized information as well.<br /><br />http://www.snopes.com/language/document/1895exam.aspJeffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12247595563329330904noreply@blogger.com
