The quality we see today is poor by comparison.

In high school we were actually prepared to go to college with stringent basic course requirements and high standards.

I was dumbstruck when I asked a college bound nephew to tell me about his high school senior thesis. He didn't know what I was talking about.  That was a little over 30 years ago.
