Raising the minimum GPA

YES! By raising the minimum GPA our centers of higher edumakaashun will produce more and more gummint quality bureaucraps to run our lives! Oh, the JOYS of Next Tuesday™ and our future life in a GPA Free Utopia! I'm feeling a bit faint....
As you noted, anything mentioning "mastering" is racist, considering America's horrible past with slavery. Our party
Details, Blogunov, details!
1. We need a GPA tax on overachievers, you know, those students who actually want to get an education and actually do study. They already set a bad example by setting themselves above their peers and damaging their self esteem and thus need to be punished for making people feel bad. A program such as you propose cannot be truly Progressive unless it rewards our friends and punishes our enemies...Obama himself said this, so it must be true.
That being said, there really aren't enough overachiever students to provide the surplus grades needed to fund the minimum GPA, so...
2. We will need to supplement the GPA pool in the following ways:
2.a. Lower the threshold for GPA taxation to include not just the millionaires and billionaires of the academic world, but the average students as well. They need to pay their fair share just like everyone else (excepting, of course, the students who are receiving a GPA subsidy) to make up for the institutional bias that allowed them to make any grades in the first place.
They need to be taught that they didn't make those grades because the government built the school, and the road that leads to the school, and the lunch that nourishes them between classroom naps (surprisingly enough, all from the same raw materials), and without these, they would not be able to learn anything, and would be condemned to living a life full of long, pointless and boring run-on sentences that never seem to end or come to a close but which never were going anywhere in the first place, which while being a great metaphor and simile for the Party's slate of candidates, does not make for good poetry in a drum circle and is therefor ultimately futile, just like the rest of their lives without the Party to guide them on junk and stuff.
2.b. Come up with some mechanism whereby select groups of our friends and supporters can sell GPA-Offset-Credits to somebody for some reason that is never quite clear. This needs to be absolutely transparent except for who gets paid what for providing which service. While this does not actually provide any grades for any students, it is a way to make a quick buck off a crisis we invented.
2.c. Borrow grades for other countries. Yes, this will eventually create a grade debt, but by the time it becomes a problem they will have already graduated and it will be their children who get to deal with the problem. By the time the problem gets big enough for most people to start noticing it, it will have become institutional practice and therefor sacrosanct. We can point out that it is both an established entitlement and that it is for the children and thus deserves that same protection afforded to polar bears and other endangered species. For those idiots who demand that a government program actually have a reason, we can call it an "investment in the future."
The road to success may be even easier than that, by simply taking your first chart and flipping it upside down, as in the picture below. In fact, I started making it simply to illustrate my point, and then decided to post it as a separate installment of the Current Truth.

Also the emphasis in schools must be on regurgitating what the establishment academics have concocted, and all this nonsense about "personal interpretation" and critical thinking must urgently be suppressed.

Maybe teams of politikal korrekt students have to be formed, who will preside over "committees of public education" to see which students are worthy of state - sponsored teaching time.Also the emphasis in schools must be on regurgitating what the establishment academics have concocted, and all this nonsense about "personal interpretation" and critical thinking must urgently be suppressed.
D : Dummkopf, and mein GPA = D.

... the emphasis in schools ...Far-sighted Minitrue, I see here an incredible chance for uplifting our European Values !
Just think of a Truly Progressive GPA, designed and applied specifically to alleviate all the problems causing Herr Harzheim, the Oberschwimmbademeister der Nation, sleepless nights !
Both our Kubicles — yours, in the very heart of EUSSR, and my, At The Foot of Alps — would certainly act as a Progress-Führer of an uncompromisingly inclusive multicultural GPA designed for the particular needs of our newly arrived and arriving co-Europeans (mit-Europäer) from the lands of Ummah and from the Sad Continent. (dse Gewinnspanne vee fifti-fifti, ja? aber psst!).
Given a Truly Progressive GPA, an even broader vision appears on the horizon : a new chapter in Transatlantic Affairs — American Progressivism marching in lockstep with European Socialism, accompanied by progressively GPA'd masses of EU-Musulmans as Junior Partner Force. Wow !
(True Story) One of my comrade professor colleagues offered his students the choice before taking a midterm exam of accepting their own exam score, or being assigned the average score of those who chose to share their exam scores. In a grave act of injustice and lack of progressive egalitarianism, only one student joined the pool - the student who ended up earning the lowest exam score.
Comrades, we must take from each according to his ability, and give to each according to his need. We must take away the choice from the young proles and give it to the state, who will make benevolent, glorious, and equal choices. The Glorious World of Next Tuesday is at hand!

I wish The Cube Collective was deemed a little " more equal " in the eyes of the Central Committee to be allowed use of one of the more modern tractors shown above !Our current tractor is what the State has granted us use of for the past ten years...
iSwear to Lenin, I love that tractor more equal than many of the batches it has helped seen brewed. The sight of it coming or going through the beet fields, whether the sun shines on it or Comrade Ivan S. begetting soaked, has always brought the sentimental Rheum to my eyes
I understand from one of my comrade professor colleagues that under the 5 year plan, tractor production was measured in tons of tractors rather than the quantity of tractors produced.
Your tractors will gloriously meet the enlightened tractor production quota, and prepare many state-owned beet fields for abundant collective harvest to be distributed to each according to his need.
Both tractors you show appear to have cranks on the front. It must have taken a sturdy Soviet collective laborer to crank one of those. Maybe Yelling Yellena?

This is the best idea for fixing the education system with the addition of bias affirmative action and party loyalty. Minorities, girls, asians, and homosexuals should be given better grades while boys and climate change deniers should be given worse grades. Same goes for treatment.(prog off)My dad would always tell me that same story to teach me why socialism doesn't work. I'm very fortunate that he decided to settle in my home city with one of the greatest education systems in the nation instead of moving a few miles south for a lower tax rate during his time in the service. However, my Earth Science teacher was extremely biased always the girls in class as heroes of the environment and claiming (to my parents) that I did nothing in class. We were forced to do a service project to help the environment (my group labeled storm drains the coty was supposed to do.). at the end of the year all the teachers' favorite student awards went to the same girls and presumably gay black guy.

In fact, “grades” are just inefficient. There should only be “within tolerances” OR “rejected/recycled”. Each part/biological unit needs to only be instructed on its individual function, additional thoughts are un-needed. That is why everyone is equal. No part is greater than any other.
Any thoughts of “improving” or “achieving” on an individual basis are illogical. If you are not doing your part in the collective (even if you think you are “better”), you are by definition unsuitable and will be rejected/recycled.

This brings us closer to the society in which all are equal because of the sacrifices and heroic labor of those empowered to enforce equality. Next Tuesday can't come soon enough.Comrades, it warms my revolutionary heart to see your yearning and fight for Singularly Progressive Equality! Oh, Next Tuesday! When all our shiny contributions to The (glorious!) People’s Cube - every single contribution of ours, all of them - will be, like, totally equal!
(so there will even be no need to [quote|...|/quote] anymore!)
With every day, I see us coming closer to this glory! We already use so many equal words - all of us speaking here, like, "re-education", "kollektive", "motherland", "Further Progress", "Climate Change" and "Tractor Barn #2"!
Some of our words still differ, yet I note with topmost confidence that we already use a highly equal alphabet! With only some 20 plus characters - and each single of them anyway just an indistinguishable byte - we already achieve very limited diversity!
(ok, forget the Umlaut once here, once there.. or the occasional Cyrillic interspersal.. or, every now and then, al-abjadīyah al-ʻarabīyah PBUH.)
