The idea isn’t new, but the results are just as funny.
The Young America’s Foundation (YAF) just released a “stellar entry”
from its annual GPA Redistribution Petition and Video Contest. That
contest looks to capture hypocritical thinking on college campuses,
where many are willing to redistribute wealth but not grades. The
following entry comes from Carthage College (located in Wisconsin*). YAF
explains what you’re about to see:
Yet, when students at Carthage where asked if they would
be willing to sign a petition to redistribute GPA points from the top
10% to the rest of the college, most of them said NO. One student said, “No, because I worked hard for my grades!”
Another said, “At Carthage, each student has an equal opportunity to get the GPA they desire.” And another, “I don‘t want my GPA being taken away from me if I had an ’A’.”
