My favorite part of the article.

"Those USC kids told me, 'If I took this class at USC, I'd get a D.' All of them said that," Ross said. But she is not apologetic.

"I've never given an easy grade in my life," she told The Times in a recent interview. "You come to my class and work, and I see you want to learn, I'll give you an A. I see some lazy ass, coming late all the time, acting like he doesn't care, I won't give him an A. I'll give him a B."


Apparently SC was tipped off that several members of the football and basketball team along with other sports were all taking these off campus Spanish classes and to their credit they informed all the "students" that the grades were not going to count as credit for USC. Rumor is that's why PG Gabe Pruitt was ineligible first semester this year he had credits wiped out from this class and didn't have time to make them up in the summer.
