“grades are correlated with learning the material.”
The UChicago website says that students are bonded by a love of learning. Why would you need grades to motivate kids who are there for the sake of learning? I’m not saying eliminate grades, just make it the student’s choice. BTW, most other colleges would agree with your statement, but I thought UC was this unique, love of learning place, where minds are expanded, not for a grade but for a higher purpose!
