It simply observed a decline in the number of 22-year-olds and projected that this demographic trend would result in a huge shortfall.

“I am not against standardized tests. There are tests and tests and tests, and, to simplify, the ones I favor are criterion-referenced tests of skills, aligned with the curriculum.
