I read something that I thought was sad in the paper the other day. Goldman Sachs (apparently) is really looking for employees that can actually write. The C.E.O. said that there are too many people graduating from college these days with absolutely no skill in writing. They can't string two sentences together and make them coherent. Weird, right?
