A lot of people left the military when Bill Clinton was elected. If Hillary is elected will she have to reinstate the draft just to have any kind of military. Do you think they will draft girls, too? Women are already serving in Iraq and the Commander-in-Chief will be a female, I don't see how they could not take girls, too.

The grading scale is A, P, B, BB

I believe receiving a B is similar to receiving a "D"

My question is for Elem Teachers who use the scale of A, P, B, BB.

How often do you hand out B's and BB's

For example in a classroom of 20 first graders how would the grades looks on the reports? Lots of B's? or very few?

I am getting ready to go to college this fall. I have two prospective colleges in my area that I am interested in. The schools have to be in my area as I have a family and can't move.
Both offer a Pre-Medical program and are very good schools. In my research to help decide which school to attend I came accross USNews.com that had one school ranked high in a classification called "Master's Universities" and one that ranked high in "Comprehensive College's". Aside from this and the fact that one is in an urban setting and the other is in a suburban setting they are almost identical, tuition, affiliation, selectivity, ect.
I have tried to research which would be the better path between them from a medical standpoint, but can't find anything.
Any help would be appreciated.

My son is 4 and in early education. I fear the future when he is in a "regular" classroom with kids who are not autistic. Do you have children who are a bit older in regular classes or grown up. I worry about his life and what he will be like when older.
