A view on education

Vermont Public Radio has some excellent and insightful contributors to their Commentary Series. Today, Bill Schubart spoke about how Americans must rediscover the importance of education as a necessary aspect of our future--including our economic future.

He points to parents and business leaders and politicians as having played a role damaging our educational system. He ends his commentary with these words,

"We must finally stop blaming everyone but ourselves."

Take the three and a half minutes necessary to listen to Schubart's comments... then stop and see what "problems" you encounter that you blame on others. Finally stop blaming them and fix it.
