Who says that students are not culpable? I for one respect students enough
to hold them culpable. Simply because victimology is a national ideology
does not make it an accurate characterization of empirical facts or
existential realities. It's amazing that we are afraid even to imagine that
people are responsible for their lives and their development.

Louis, I don't think any of us are blaming the students; I think we are
venting a collective lament at the *fact* that students don't read, not
that they're culpable.

I think some of us are being too harsh. We aren't very understanding of
our very young students. We're not walking in their shoes or
remembering how we were like at those ages.
Make it a good day.
