The results of a follow-up study updating a 2001 report of academic standards at Ohio University are presented, and findings for both the University and its Russ College of Engineering and Technology are described, contrasted and compared for 1993, 1999 and 2004. Causes of grade inflation in higher education as reported in the literature are described─with emphasis on recent literature attributing the continuation of grade inflation to the commodification and commercialization of higher education in America.
