I guess the question should have been "why is the paragraph text smaller?"
This will make it 16px
//make paragraph the same size and color
.item p {
font-size: inherit;
color: inherit;
}
...which overrides:
.item p, .mm-grades-table .itemcenter p {
color: #666;
font-size: 14px;
margin-bottom: 2px;
}
