<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Leadfoot, post: 1414133, member: 2972&quot;]I&#039;m not going to defend gradeflation any more than you are.&nbsp; I think you make a good point about sticking to their printed standards, but I&#039;m not too hung up on that point.&nbsp; As long as they are consistent, even with a moving target, then I&#039;m OK.&nbsp; Sure, I&#039;d wish the same standards used in 1986 (or 1996, or 2006) were used today, but that&#039;s not the case (frankly, I&#039;m not sure I agree with the more recent changes in standards you allude to, but that&#039;s a different discussion), and I think we&#039;re better off focusing on the state of things today rather than complaining about what&#039;s changed.&nbsp; That&#039;s not to say complaints don&#039;t have an effect, but rather there are other things I prefer to spend my time thinking about.&nbsp; But that&#039;s just me, and I&#039;m the only person I can control, and you are certainly entitled to your opinion as well -- and neither one of us is likely to convince the other to change their beliefs....Mike</p><p><br /></p><p>p.s. thanks for the clarification on the ANA standards changing, as you know, I don&#039;t (and never have) focused on the books on the topic -- although I own and have read most of them -- I learn through seeing not reading.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
