Ex-Gov. Pataki, who put Regents in place, rips ‘incredibly stupid’ axing of tests: ‘Really sad day for New York’

Gov. Kathy Hochul and her Dem cronies are dunces for allowing the dumbing down of the state’s high-school-diploma requirements by ditching the Regents exams, says the ex-gov who helped put the tests in place. “Getting rid of the Regents is incredibly stupid,” said George Pataki, the Republican three-term New York governor from 1995 through 2006, to The Post. “It seems like the Education Department’s main function right now is to disguise the fact that too many New York State schools are failing to educate our kids,” Pataki said. Former Governor George E. Pataki speaks at the dedication and ribbon-cutting ceremony for the Pataki Center in Albany, NY on Aug. 5, 2026. Hans Pennink for NY Post “So instead of doing the appropriate testing so that corrective measures could be taken to improve [performance], they simply get rid of the tests to hide their failure.” “This is really a sad day for New York.” Pataki was slamming the state’s education policy-making board and Education Department for phasing out the exams by 2028 that are currently required to earn a high school diploma. There are no alternative graduation requirements in place, at least yet. The Regents exams that students have needed to

Fresh proof that New York’s leaders are betraying our schoolchildren

CUNY graduation rates are falling fast — the fruit of the state Board of Regents’ war on standards with the city Department of Education’s eager cooperation. Across CUNY, graduation rates plunged about a tenth these last five years, a drop from 62% in 2022 to 55.6% this past academic year at four-year colleges and from 38.9% to 35.5% at two-year schools. CUNY’s much-admired three-year undergrad degree, the Accelerated Study in Associate Programs, saw grad rates collapse from 44% to 34.5%. CUNY graduation rates plummet in 5-year slide: ‘It’s a two-pronged problem’ Since CUNY students are overwhelming the product of New York City public schools, this is clear evidence the Department of Education, after eight years of failed leadership under Mayor Bill de Blasio followed by prolonged COVID school closures thanks to the United Federation of Teachers, has been failing to prepare its graduates for college. Ex-Gov. George Pataki is right to also blame the Regents-run State Education Department and Gov. Kathy Hochul’s failure to seek accountability, calling the Regents’ recent move to end the exams-based Regents diploma “incredibly stupid” and a cynical bid “to disguise the fact that too many New York state schools are failing to educate our kids.”

Cornell Didn’t Just Fail One Woman. It Failed Everyone Watching.

We wonder how we end up with the Epstein files, the Weinsteins, the Diddys, the Woody Allens, the Roman Polanskis, and why powerful men walk free. We forward the petitions, share the threads, say never again, and then we turn around and watch Cornell University, one of the most prestigious universities in the world, offer young men accused of gang-raping a 20-year-old woman the opportunity to mitigate their punishment by writing an essay.
