Ask Amy: Friend wonders about racist pals

When I was in college as an older adult (40), I had mostly As and Bs. I got a C in my third-year calculus class. A lot of us got Cs.
I still remember the words of my professor: “A ‘C’ may seem bad to you, but remember, your grade is higher and you've learned more than those who don't take this class, or even go to college.”
These parents need to rethink their demands.

Dear Been There: I’m giving you a solid “A.”
