Even harder in the UK where we have 3 years and the drive is for bigger credit modules and less contact. Students can only actually take 16-18 modules in a degree programme at most institutions (at most). We can't teach them everything.

I guess for me the lack of explicit discussion is telling.

And yes, it's still very very rife and manifests in that somewhat subtle exclusion. Which is why it's so important to call it out for what it is.

But I also think this article isn't providing the nuance that it is being promoted as doing. I don't think it's helpful to frame this as "Franklin wasn't a victim" either.
