Thank you for diverting this topic from 'GPA standards as a way to keep out students with disabilities'. That is such a crock. Sigmadiva is right, learning disability does NOT equal dumb or low GPA.
Why do high schools/universities even have GPAs? It's a way for them to measure success, progress, and performance in the courses one attempts. We could probably do away with them, but with the natural competitive instinct 'Pass/Fail' would never fly.
Most organizations do have GPA standards...I believe all of us have an officer responsible for making sure grades are kept high, etc. too. I've seen some schools where a minimum is set, and then the sororities will make their own which exceed the school minimum.
I guess I just don't see what the big deal is.
