I'm not shocked...

In fact, I am completely underwhelmed by such a possibility.
Not because she is a woman either - but because people are 'ordered passed' all the time out of convenience.
Part of the scandal around "the letter" that circulated last year was because some students sucked SO bad that they were passed anyway.


At the root - none of this is a "female" problem.
The problem is not even a leadership 'failure' since "failing" is the result of an honest try that came up short.
The problem here is nothing less than a leadership "refusal" to remain loyal to standards.


but hey - everyone paid their membership fee so everyone gets a trophy
Not to mention the fact that - if such an accusation of an order to pass without regard to standards - there is really only one person in that unit with such power and it sure as hell isn't an E7 lane walker
