Conservatives, do you refute that their exists a lack of accountability in

[Matthew D]

assessing professional performance? And that makes it radically different from academic performance.

[Exposing Liberal Lies]

Yes, I refute it. There are audits, performance evaluations, raises based on merit, and many other ways that performance is assessed.

[SNOOPY]

Right, Bill Gates and Warren Buffet have just slogged along without being held accountable. Nobody has noticed or cared about their performance.

[newell is a fvcking idiot]

Yes, Janet Incompetano and Eric Holder are inexplicable still employed.
It's 'there', not 'their', go back to school.

[Jason Jackson]

Ask Austan Goolsbee, Peter Orzag, Christina Romer, and Larry Summers.

Your socialist economic team of.....cluelessness.

[Scooterpoop]

Anyone can make themselves accountable any time they choose. It's not a challenge.

There's nothing to refute.

[crash.override]

I think there IS accountability in assessing professional performance...in the form of evalutations, earnings reports, feedback, surveys, etc.

[El Tecolote]

I don't refute that at all. It's called AFFIRMATIVE ACTION and we need to cut it out like a cancer.

[RitchWilliams]

Absolutely, I refute it. There is no end to the levels and types of professional accountability. Don't believe it? Screw up just once and try to keep your job. And if you get fired, good luck finding a new job in that industry.

And, having spent more than my fair share of time in the area of academia, I'd say there is far less in this endeavor even though they give you a grade. You think that grade is totally objective or consistently reflects a student's level of understanding of the material, I invite you to spend a little more time in a class room. They try, I'll give them that, but are only marginally successful.

[Curtis 1911]

Nope, totally the opposite,,,,,,,,,,,I refute that their exists a lack of accountability in assessing academic performance!

How can ther be accountability when you have a teachers union and teachers tenure?

Some public school teachers are still licensed and collecting pay after being convicted of sex crimes with students.
