grade inflation


(n.) what goes on at harvard. see harvard.
a harvard university report last spring complained of grade inflation that makes it easier to get high grades. now the academic dean, susan pedersen, has released data showing that 49 percent of undergraduate grades were a’s in 2001, up considerably from 23 percent in 1986.
the opposite of what happens at princeton.
princetonian 1: dude, i got over 90% on that final but still only got a b.
princetonian 2: welcome to princeton, where we don’t have grade inflation like at harvard and yale.
