Why do dogs always race to the door when the doorbell rings? It's almost never for them.

I read earlier that the coots had proposed this exemption for their athletes and extended it to their
students. For Clemson to follow their sorry example of dumbing down academics is pathetic.

Standards are important as is academic competition. We should take the high road and not follow the
#####. However it is pretty obvious of the end game here.

This means that some that really deserve to get in, won't, and vice versa. There's just so many openings.

I'm guessing this will be the case everywhere.

How can any school require standardized testing when that hasn't been a possibility for much of this year?

Because this starts fall 21.
Accepting those who chose to not take the standardized test devalues the future Clemson degree.

Why couldn’t this not have happened 45 years ago? I might have qualified!
