    I expect our President Peterprinciple will be treading the no test path soon. This will be presented as a historic overture to the differentially-prepared, underprepared, and unprepared communities. Hints will be dropped that in the past, we have focused excessively on students who can write grammatical sentences and solve simple algebra problems. A stern warning will follow that we are not becoming “open admissions,” but that we will employ holistic criteria to look at the whole person, especially their ability to bounce a ball or willingness to enroll in our floundering business school.

    tp: Laugh out loud.
