Eh... i have to agree that our education system sucks... but not evenly all around. There are plenty of schools out there that are doing the job right. But the fact of the matter is, you can only find them in middle to upper class suburban neighborhoods, where parents are willing to make a committment to their children's education. But here's the thing... our kids aren't gonna get educated unless there is sufficient support both in the classroom and at home. Unfortunately, in too many places, either one or both is lacking... Heh heh... (ie: don't take what i'm about to say seriously) there's also the possibility that the education system is kept in its current conditition intentionally. I mean, stratified education allows for a stratified labor force. After all, there aren't too many well-educated people out there that are willing to take minimum-wage jobs, and someone's gotta do the menial labor... heh heh... sorry bout that... I bought the 2 seasons of 24 and have watched both seasons in less than a week... Now I think EVERYTHING is a conspiracy formed either by the government or by rogue terrorist units ;) that is all... bChoi! -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of nowhere girl Sent: Thursday, October 09, 2003 6:41 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [D] re: Re: nrr: cool .... > notice how the east coast is totally kicking our ass on this? also, they > have all the ivy league schools. is it cuz there's more "old money" on the > east coast? just a thought. i did notice that, but then i'd say the deep south is stacked pretty low as well. maybe the higher states are more populated with *cough*DA MAN*cough* than some of the other ones. but can we really deny that our state's education system is in shambles ? maybe this survey should be treated as a wake up call instead of an insult on our reputation, no ? ___________________________________________________________________ The D mailing list http://www.djdenise.com/ Check out the new forum! http://www.djdenise.com/forum/ ___________________________________________________________________ The D mailing list http://www.djdenise.com/ Check out the new forum! http://www.djdenise.com/forum/
