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. |

Nancy: If I may butt-in - Listening to an Orlando area radio station yesterday, the reporter stated that 350 new people were moving into Central Florida (Orange and surrounding counties) daily. With the "service economy" and seasonal employment flux, I suspect our population in many schools could be described as nomadic. With the socio-economic bind many of these citizens face, I suspect many of them, even if they stay in the same county, move through various schools as the rents come due and leases lapse.

Gloria, The whole time I was in Florida for IRA, the teachers there were complaining about the amount of growth and how they don't have the money to build enough new buildings. Do these numbers include new students moving in? Or do you think that would be minimal at the high school level?
