As is Ramsey's penchant for seeking stories lauding UGA and Tech.

I'm very pleased to see our flagship universities continuing their upward climb. It's great news for Georgia!

Is this really news? I mean, "Incoming freshman class dumber than last years." THAT would be news, right?

The headline should be, "Dumbing Down Students Reaches A New High."

Really7? How many current students are you familiar with? There are no idiots admitted to these schools today. I attended a couple of conferences at UGA this past May, and was in awe at the accomplishments of the senior class.

Hang around any GA high school next winter, and listen for the wails from the many who won't be admitted.

Yeah it will be that way every year. That's what happens when the population increases but the number of students each university can accept does not go up all that much. There will be more competition and selection criteria can be stricter.
