The Rule of Failure
Why do so many Eastern Washington University students struggle with basic math courses?
by Daniel Walters @danielwinlander | December 14, 2011
“It was very obvious to me,” Hurley says sarcastically, “that what’s broken with the Eastern Washington math program is they don’t actually go to [the students’] dorm rooms and help them with homework.”
On most Fridays, Lane says, about a third of her students skip class.
“I’m horrified,” she says of the failure rate. “I wish I could tell you how hard we work at it — every couple years, we’ve tried something different.”
Don't get EWU folks started on a math problem, it's like asking a Bobcat fan to define "winning tradition." It's not going to be productive
