根据一位耶鲁爸在群里的分享:今年进入耶鲁拉丁荣誉本科毕业生的GPA为:3.95 Summa Cum Laude, 3.89 Magna Cum Laude和3.81 Cum Laude。获得这三项荣誉的学生总人数为耶鲁前面30%的毕业生,在耶鲁A-为3.67,满分4.0。这平均成绩之高远超过从前,已经达到了令人难以置信的程度。这如果不是耶鲁给分膨胀(Grade Inflation), 我都不知道算什么。况且这是仅以所有课程不分难易和学科的总平均成绩,所以如果统一或横向比较非常容易误导。我们不应该忘了:Maya Lin在耶鲁得B或C的设计课程赢得美国首都越战纪念碑的设计竞标。
回复 'czhz' 的评论 : 切尼肯定不在场。你或许不知道,一般的场合,为了安全起见,美国总统和副总统避免同时出席一个活动的。小布什的话,你记对了部分:“Most important, congratulations to the class of 2001. To those of you who received honors, awards, and distinctions, I say, well done. And to the C students I say, you, too, can be President of the United States. [Laughter] A Yale degree is worth a lot, as I often remind Dick Cheney—[laughter]—who studied here but left a little early. So now we know: If you graduate from Yale, you become President; if you drop out, you get to be Vice President. [Laughter] ”

小布什总统在耶鲁毕业典礼上说:耶鲁学位很值钱,毕业了当总统,肄业则只能当副总统。幸好副总统切尼当时不在场,不然罹患心脏病的他恐怕受不了。

不能肯定,但我记得切尼当时在场,原话似乎没提到副总统,我记得是: At Yale, even you have got C, you still can become the president of United States.
