Frazz by Jef Mallett for July 01, 2015

Hey, he’ll love getting away from the ‘rents, though….The scary part is when you realize your home doesn’t clean itself….For a freshman guy, it takes a couple of years…

I was a six month quituate myself. Caulfield is a Dreadhead.

From what I hear and read, getting into college is harder than graduating.Yes, I know that’s hyperbole.

I used to work for a state agency. When I had a “customer” who was illiterate and had to sign a statement of understanding containing the words “under penalty of law,” I would have a coworker watch and listen as I read the statement and made sure the person understood what he was about to sign. It is sad how many young people cannot read or have comprehension that is a 1st or 2nd grade level.

Then there was my neighbor’s daughter. She went to a church based private $chool, and got straight A’s in grades 6-12. They had her all set to go off to a military academy, when the girl suddenly realized she didn’t want to be in the military, and it was too late to apply to a regular university. She ended up at the local community college where she had to take beginning algebra (despite getting “the best grades money could buy” in math up through calculus, as well as in all her other classes). So much for both their instruction and their college counseling..She’s now a tennis instructor. So much for paying $12,000 a year for good grades from a church school where they won’t give you bad grades or they might lose your tuition.

You said slavishly…Racist!!!
