What are your thoughts about professors using a bell curve as a grading system?

what freaking class is this... you only need half the points in class to get a C?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

This is not a bell curve this is a grading scale. A bell curve would be the teacher taking the grades and graphing them and finding where the peak of the bell is and then moving it so that the median score is a C.
 
Do you think that the bell curve is harsh? Or sometimes unfair?

What do you think about the grading scale listed below? Do you think this is a good/fair grading scale?

90%+ = A
85-89% = A-
80-84% = B+
75-79% = B
70-74% = B-
65-69% = C+
60-64% = C
55-59% = C-
50-54% = D+
45-49% = D
40-44% = D-
