The grade data come from https://berkeleytime.com/grades

I was worried they may have cherrypicked courses that support their chosen narrative.

So I plotted the % of F grades (red line) for all CS courses still offered, and sorted the chart in descending order of the # grades given out (light blue vertical bars) in the most recent semester when the course was offered.

My worry was borne out. See the first few charts. No big increase in F % in the past few semesters.
