CORRECTION: Due to a reporting error, the original version of this story misrepresented the views of Deborah Eaker-Rich. Eaker-Rich did not say she supported some of the report's findings nor did she question the grading scale.

She also did not say those in the School of Education are making moves to change policy. Rather, she said they look at policy and research the impact of it on education. The story has been updated to reflect these changes.
