There are plenty of 2nd and 3rd place ribbons available. Everyone finishes first!! Is this proof of the self-esteem movement? Everyone gets blue ribbon! At our High School we have a credit recovery program called "A+" that students take to get credit for a failed class. The name is ironic to me...Seems like it should be called "D-" because that is what the student earned in the first place and they should aspire to a higher grade. A+ seems a little bit optimistic to me.
