I need to get the output of an options-enumeration "un-encoded".

Consider the following:

public enum GPA {
        F       ("1", "<2.00"),
        D       ("2", "2.00–2.49"),
      C       ("3", "2.50–2.99"),
        B       ("4", "3.00–3.49"),
        A       ("5", "3.50–3.99"),
        A_PLUS  ("6", "4.00"),
        OTHER   ("0", "Other");

...

public String getGpa() { return this.gpa; }

...


The output from the options-enumeration results in:

<option value="F">&amp;lt;2.00</option>
<option value="D">2.00&amp;#8211;2.49</option>
...
...

This might be good for most users, but bad for me/us, as we are using
entity notations like the endash to express ranges, e.g., "&#8211;" (the
correct use of endashes*). 

Any ideas for a workaround? I'm considering something in the return
method, but I think something is happening in the tag itself that would
defeat me.

Thanks,
Tim

PS. "&#8211;" is an endash. It is specifically used to indicate ranges
