<p>[QUOTE=&quot;desertgem, post: 2081468, member: 15199&quot;]Times have changed Chris. In the 50s and before , most advances in science, business, etc.&nbsp; were made by individuals. Today they are made by teams of scientists or financial groups, Major universities now support student &quot;concept incubators&quot; rather than individual projects, and it has produced tremendous discoveries. Many brilliant people are extremely shy and unable to deal with everyday problems that pop up. They do much better in groups where each contributes their stronger aspects.</p><p><br /></p><p>Don&#039;t blame the teachers so much, they have protocols they have to follow. Blame the local County Ed and board members who approve such and most still live in the 5os&nbsp; also.&nbsp; We elect these higher officials, but seldom on their abilities. If the parents demanded more rigor, it would be there.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
