AGREE!

Don't agree.  We one is a student, they are there to learn and may not 
have all the knowledge necessary to make proper decisions.  It is the 
instructors responsibility to impart sufficient knowledge to the student 
that upon completion of the course the graduate fully understands the 
potential consequences of his actions.  If the student is incapable of 
assimilating the information and demonstrating competance in the 
required skills, it is the instructors responsibility to not certify the 
student.  Unfortunately, I'm afraid the latter rarely occurs.

Safe diving,
