I work at a large public university. There’s tremendous pressure on professors to make sure students pass. This is especially true on courses that tend to filter students, such as Chem, Physics and some math courses. They will remove tenured faculty from teaching courses where they are failing too many students. These courses will be handed to lecturers who will be more sympathetic to passing more students. Also, they’ve also changed a course like Organic Chemistry from upper division to lower division. They have also started allowing high school level math courses to count for college credits.
