Freshman English in college was used to weed out the students who had no business being in college. Some teachers were exceptional at doing the weeding. I had one, a young woman, who stood in front of us the 1st day and said that no one would get an A. She didn't give A's because no one was up to her standards. It didn't matter how exceptional you were, you couldn't get an A. A good friend of mine was in the class with me. We'd gone to school together since elementary and he was one of the brilliant ones. Last I heard of him, he was doing medical research at Johns Hopkins. Anyway, when we graduated from college, that was his 1 and only undergraduate B. The stupid bitch stole his valedictorian award.
While I condemn the fact that she would not give an A, she (or possibly someone else) did at least teach you that a person graduates FROM an educational institution.
