This is inspired by a recent post asking about the writing/literacy crisis in colleges. I'm a science major, and one way or another I've ended up reading a significant amount of work written by my peers. The quality of writing by some of them is extremely poor. I hope it is not controversial to say the poorest English writing I have read has come from students who are non-native speakers. What do professors do when they have to grade work by students who try their best, but unfortunately do not have a proper grasp of English? Even science majors have to take at least one non-science writing course by the end of their first year where I go to school. Are grammar and syntax overlooked in certain cases, or do many students struggle and fail in these first-year courses?

I know why he was called Caspian in the context of the story, but I was wondering if anyone thinks there might be a thematic reason as to why it’s specifically that and not some other literary reference. I read the plot synopsis for Prince Caspian and I don’t see how it relates to Pantheon’s story.

This would mean you could have an absolutely enormous standard deviation and be able to say, yep, guess my specimen is exactly what I thought it was. Is that how it works or am I misinterpreting it?

EDIT: This question comes from a set of report guidelines, for a class I was taking but that has now concluded. Here is the full page. The content is irrelevant to my question but people in the comments are asking for context.
