Kugel: Give us some credit(s)

Senior Diana Kugel, The Hatchet’s opinions editor, argues that with reduced General Curriculum Requirements, students would not abuse the right to pick their own classes.

“It would be easy – and tempting – to institute some other program or requirements to take place of the trimmed GCRs, but please, have a little faith in the next generation of students. You can lead a student to knowledge, but you can’t make them learn. Instead, let them chase after what it is that excites and intrigues them, without referencing a requirements checklist.”
