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. |
[Author Prev][Author Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Author Index][Thread Index] Fw: centralization
In view of Jim Horn's comments on Will, some might find my letter to Will amusing. ----- Original Message ----- From: GERALD BRACEY To: georgewill@washpost.com Sent: Thursday, February 01, 2007 8:38 AM Subject: centralization I always find it amusing when people refer to our "centralized" system of education with its 15,000 school systems. I think of how the French minister of education, the one who said he knew what page every kid in France was on on any given day, would react to that comment. So when will you write about the Dodd-Ehlers bill or No Child Left Behind one potential and one actual step towards real centralization? It probably doesn't interest you, but some of my views now appear at www.huffingtonpost.com/gerald-bracey. JB
