Interversity Quotes"I think it's time to ask the Standardistos: Where's the test for compassion? For honesty? For curiosity? For moral commitment? Until they can answer, let's tell them to shut up." —Susan Ohanian (One Size Fits Few: The Folly of Educational Standards) Interversity ProjectsEchoes of Orwell:The purpose of this webforum is to promote a lively discussion among students and faculty alike about George Orwell's 1984 and the parallels or echoes found in today's society. |

Just watched the testing segment on PBS...what a great case Alfie & Monty made against testing as they debated Keeghan & Evers. Am I now so biased against testing that I can't see opposing viewpoints as having any merit whatsoever? Or are these people just ignorant? Evers seemed slow & rehearsed in his dispassionate responses as he dutifully stated (his?)position. Keeghan turned on the charm & was transparently fake as she glowed on about HER wonderful tests and results in HER state. Now I know why folks rage about Keeghan. Listening to her BS totally pissed me off. Has she even been to a public school & talked with teachers or parents? You guys did an awesome job!!!! You made my night. The week before TAAS tests are given was right timing. I hope to see you do more of this REAL SOON...
