Victims of Social Promotion?

Something fishy is going on at Harvard. Half of all grades are A and A-minus, and nearly all Harvard seniors are graduating with honors.


    Last year, a record 91 percent of Harvard seniors graduated with honors, a Globe study found, compared with 51 percent at Yale and 44 percent at Princeton.

A Harvard education, while expensive and a badge of the elite, doesn’t seem to mean much in reality.
