Like others have said, my state requires US History (which is the "American" History I'm sure he's referring to) in order to graduate, so college students will be familiar with the basics. It's counterproductive to have an entire course dedicated to going over basics that everyone should already know.
If he's upset about this, why not get mad that there isn't an Arithmetic 101 available? Where does it stop?

I have to disagree with you at the bolded. Since college courses are more comprehensive then high school courses, I don't find it to be counterproductive. Should colleges not offer Political Science or Speech or Algebra courses since most high school seniors have to take these classes in order to graduate?
