> you'd think colleges would bend over backwards to make sure these concepts are learned as succinctly as possible rather than add a curve to a test that makes a 23 out of 100 an "A" grade

School is not about learning. It's about money. Seating as many students as possible for as long as possible to suck in as much student loan money as possible. For this you need to be a prestigious school. Of course they want to boost their grades.

These are the people who have the gall to claim a moral high ground when they find and punish "cheaters".
