The median course grade at Harvard has been A- for over 20 years.

It's inflated, but then again, how much Harvard coursework mastery is actually necessary for your job?

In the state school I went to in the 90s, they were acolytes of the bell curve.

Mastery or not, if your score bumped you out of the curve, you were getting a B.

Friends in Ivy League schools would get As or incompletes.
