Technically, you could implement DRM rights management services on your end, so the user has to contact your organization's RMS server over HTTPS for a license every time the document is opened...
And to think that RMS would be involved in such an anti-freedom sort of scheme!
Agree with the previous posters. Grade inflation, yes. Broad admissions standards, yes.
But in a more general sense, it seems largely due to the (to me) bizarre notion that a good goal is for more people to attend university. U.S. culture nurtures the idea that if you don't get a college degree, you are worthless. Typical 'First World' wrongheaded thinking, the kind which Alexis de Tocqueville observed back in ~1835.
Which is kind of funny when you see many college graduates working (not by choice) at Starbucks or the like--just as you see see many non-graduates and even secondary school dropouts working quite ably and to great success in corporations or in businesses they themselves own.
The more I experience, the more I am convinced that--save for a relative few exceptions--people either have a basic grasp of thinking, writing, basic maths, etc., or they don't. Usually, this attainment or non-attainment preceeds the age at which one typically might attend college by approximately 10 years.
It's hard to tell whether you're being sarcastic. But, assuming that your comments are in earnest:
Now, you might think I am being anti-woman by calling you babe, but you are wrong. I am showing favoritism. If you were a man I would have called you a brain-dead retard. It's just another example of the favoritism women get in the industry: you get a compliment instead of an insult.
I wish my karma were not currently 'bad', so that I could mod up.
