There isn't grade inflation in STEM programs. These discussions neglect this fact because the vast majority of college students are still humanities majors. If you look at Math or Mechanical Engineering departments, there is zero issue of grade inflation. OP article is about philosophy program where I can definitely see the fuzzy nature of the subject leading to soft grading. If anything most engineering schools are known for grade deflation. At my school, they started adding the course average grade to transcripts, but only for courses at the college of liberal arts.
