High School

That's okay - because in ten more years, most of the [FEW] remaining industrial jobs in
this country will have been out-sourced overseas anyways - we won't even be classified
as an "industrialized nation" any more at that point!

Could someone tell me when our esteemed education systems changed 'High School diploma' to "High School Degree'?

What is a so-called "High School Degree" in ... sports ... choir ... sewing ...

When I was in High School it was just "High School Diploma" period while "Degrees" were reserved for Colleges and Universities.

It seems that the use of "High School Degree" is a feel good term that has absolutely no value, but then a whole lot has changed since I went to school ... Graduation exercises for Elementry School Students just to name one stupid thing ... a total waste of time in school systems that are turning out kids that can't read or write.


OH BY THE WAY THE UNITED STATES HAS FALLEN TO NUMBER 7 IN THE NUMBER OF COLLEGE GRADUATES, AND IN 10 YEARS WE WILL HAVE DROPPED TO NUMBER 10 AMONG THE THE INDUSTRIALIZED NATIONS.
