Today’s first year undergraduate is roughly as literate as a sixth grader was a century ago. College was never meant to be a mass remedial education program and by attempting to be one it’s failing at its core mission. All this nannyware of

I'm actually a pretty big Dijkstra fanboy after having taken the time to read through most of the archive the submission is from. For whatever reason, I suddenly remembered this paper, and yeah it does seem apropos so I shared it.
