“Aleysha Ortiz wants to be a writer. There’s a hitch: she says she’s illiterate. Ya gotta have goals, as teachers used to say in the Seventies. When goals were still in vogue. Her near-term goal, however, is suing the school she graduated from, in Hartford, Connecticut, for … graduating her with honors! She has a case. While graduating illiterates has almost become a tradition in America — teachers’ unions are on board — you would think that even a woke administrator might judge graduating an illiterate with honors a step too far.” (03/10/25)
