In academic circles, being average (or below) is often given a bad
rap. This tendency to map folks onto a linear (ordered) manifold has
well-documented shortcomings, not just in academia.
Perhaps a healthier approach
is to expect mediocrity, but to go beyond that to embrace its diversity. After all, average behaviors are inevitable by definition, but it takes a wide range of skills and perceptions to
support the communities in which we live.
