Excellence is becoming extinct. I work with students occasionally and I am surprised to hear them say, " I'll be happy with a C." I lived with an inner voice that said, "You will get an A or die." (Yes, Felicians and Jesuits nearly scared me to death, but I learned.) Now, mediocrity is the norm. I don't know if this is true internationally but it is becoming true here in the US. The only way I feel this will change is with education and awareness. It's up to you to demand it. Don't let excellence go to the dogs. When's the last time you achieved excellence?
