I think the really important point about this matter is that, for better or worse, most schools DO use a +/- system, so if Xavier has just implemented it this year, then I think they're a little behind.
As for being pissed off about it because instead of having a 3.0 you have a 2.X, I'm sorry to say it, but, them's the breaks. With this 'new' system (to you) Xavier is actually now more on par with the rest of the country (perhaps continent?), so if you're only getting a 2.X now, it's a more accurate representation of how well you're doing compared to most other students in the country.
