The professors (and I use the term loosely) who train teachers and others cannot separate fact from fiction. No wonder the U. S. is falling down the education ladder of the world. <BR/>Maybe a change in higher education will be forthcoming.

Eleven years of this type of "educator" will throw our system into complete and total self-destruction.<BR/>Wonderland--safe haven.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32542246.post-82359616798495642132008-04-19T18:01:00.000-04:002008-04-19T18:01:00.000-04:00Of course the motion was denied!
