My lazy American students

That's the title of an op-ed by Kara Miller, who teaches rhetoric and history at Babson College, a business college in Wellesley, MA. She complains that the bulk of her U.S. students do not put in anywhere near the effort of her foreign students. If she is right and I think she may be, then our return to greatness is highly unlikely.

The excellent documentary Spellbound about spelling bees kind of showed that too.
