Opinion of The Bell Curve

[opebo]

Never read it, but I don't care for such things.  I grade people mostly 'in context' - partly based on what they 'seem like' in class, partly based on 'their work', and finally partly based on their academic record (there is no way I'm giving a C to someone with an A average).  In a larger sense most of these things are all derived from the student's class background with perhaps a very few rare exceptions.
