On Home Schooling
There has been a surge of interest in home schooling. Home schooling is, without a doubt, the origin and foundation of education: most of what a child will learn, she learns at home; and what our schools teach is most effective when it extends the interaction of a parent with a child. And many home schooled students easily out-pace their institutionally schooled peers, despite spending less time at formal studies.
The Most Powerful Generation
While working with students at the University of Louisiana, recently one of them spoke wistfully to me about the student protests and activism on Civil Rights, Feminism, Viet Nam and the like. He felt that his generation did have the power to change things in fundamental ways.
American Education
It's the American dream. An impoverished family-- immigrants or natives-- sacrifices everything to provide a better life for the their children. They live in squalor, wear worn clothes, live off the cheapest foodstuffs available, forgo healthcare, sell assets, deplete savings, anything, just to provide for the their children.
Poor Education And Poor Fans
All across the US, in all colleges, many college sports fans make great efforts to host opposing teams and their supports to join them, to provide them with the best in hospitality. At the same time, the home team college expends much money marketing games, to encourage other teams and their supports to visit, which increases attendance, which boosts revenues for the teams, and also generates support for all of the college's programs.
Do Liberals Dominate Higher Education?
In the interest of full honesty, I need to point out that I am generally (but not always) left-of-center. Despite that, I don't much care for liberal writers. On the other hand, conservative George F. Will is a writer I will generally read, even though he and I often do not see eye to eye.
Students And Worker Training
One popular concept in education discussions is that our schools should focus on workforce support. This approach argues that the primary goal of our schools should be to support industry. As one might suspect, these approaches most often emerge from the business sector.
