MODERATORS
This is just old people perspective. Every generation has been smarter than the previous since at least WWII. Every generation also seems pretty dumb at 19 years old.
Our schools have improved by leaps and bounds and get better all the time.
Our? Where? In the US? Certainly not in the US. By any measure. Math scores are the lowest they've been in decades, same with science. Nevermind all of the fascist 1984 book banning and burning nonsense happening in certain places. These kids are not smarter.

Passing/failing the same educational curriculum is about as close as you can get to objectively measuring "smart", and a professor just told you they are seeing gen z fail. Not sure why that's so easy to scoff at.
