I have one point to add to the topic. The author claimed that calculus is required to biology major in many colleges. I would argue the opposite, I thought at two different universities and talked to many people. They always find it strange that it is not required for most biology fields. There is even an American invention called algebra based physics. This for people in biology who never saw calculus and your try to teach them physics and mechanics without calculus (Good luck with that, that is at best lost opportunity to understand physics) I thought in algebra bases physics classes many times and it was always horrible experience for both sides. Also calculus is not mandatory in US pre-college. In general, you don't understand physics without calculus, period.
