We find the argument that a student’s experience with a course’s final will skew his or her responses unconvincing; final exams are integral to a course’s substance and should be evaluated as such. If anything, the limited window for filling out CUE evaluations causes the sample of responses to be skewed, potentially providing future students with a poor representation of the realities of the class.

Moore has fun showing the cashier's window at a London hospital, where patients don't pay anything, they get money for the trip back home. Any prescription under the U.K. National Health plan, he suggests, costs only about $12. And in France, the government will pay not only for health costs but for nannies. They'll even cook for you, and do your laundry. If Sicko doesn't win over the audience at tonight's black-tie world premiere, Moore's francophilia...
