      <![CDATA[When I took my Pima CC placement tests, I received a 90% on the reading test, a 94% on the writing test, and a 28% on the math test. My first schedule at Pima (Since I graduated HS in 1988)was WRT 101, no reading because of the 90%, MAT 082 and 2 electives.

      <![CDATA[As a writer, particularly in a weekly newspaper, you HAVE TO BE AWARE that the average person that read the articles are reading at an eighth-grade level. So you writers, if you want a widespread readership have to dumb down the articles so that section of the populace will read it.

      <![CDATA[Danehy the self proclaimed expert on everything..<br>
I find it interesting that Danehy objects to people attending PCC that are not up to his standards.<br>
Typical liberal , knows whats best for you and me..<br>
Danehy on the other hand, thinks its fine for illegal Aliens to attend PCC that cannot speak or write or even understand english worth a damn.<br>
Danehy thinks its OK for the TAX payer to flip the bill for the  poor helpless illegal mexican, south american and chinese illegal aliens that cannot speak english, get free tax payer supported med care , housing and education.. <br>
Danehy and those like him, use double and triple standards to "try " and <br>
force their values and way of life on others...<br>
<br>
<br>
Why is it a BAD thing for a white or hispanic citizen, that is less than what Danehy thinks they should be, attending PCC??<br>
Maybe Danehy thinks letting dumb people attend PCC will make Tucson more of a joke than it is now..<br>
<br>
On the other hand,   president Obama is a perfect example of what higher education can produce.<br>
A over educated  product created by affirmative  action and all with out ten minutes of common sense education ..<br>
One might also note,  that the most over educated and most under educated voted Obama into office in great numbers.<br>
Seems that both groups, the super smart and super dumb are not all that far apart.<br>

      <![CDATA[I teach Writing 100 at Pima Community College and have often used your column to illustrate rhetorical strategies or satire. I strongly support your points about personal responsibility and the general lack thereof among what seems to be an enormous underclass of needy citizens who feel entitled to that which most of us have worked hard to obtain.

      <![CDATA["an astronomically improbable unbroken series of bad teachers" <br>
<br>
Christ, Danehy. Go spend 2 hours in an inner city high school in Gary, Indiana or Detroit or Chicago and tell me how astronomically improbable you think it is to come out with no education whatsoever.<br>
<br>
<br>
"But there are also the kids who chose to go to the charter school in the shopping mall because it allows them to smoke between classes.

      <![CDATA[There is no doubt that public/private/charter/home schooled students should stay in the institution(s) they are at present until they get qualified. I suspect, however, that the difficulty of finding schools or classes for persons who left their schools years ago and now want to get literate, or persons from foreign countries who didn't get past that magical '7th grade' that Tom refers to, just might be given some leeway in community college admission.
