As a child he went to the University of Chicago Lab School…and then to a private university (Harvard). He majored in Sociology (and basketball). His only experience with education is watching his mom tutor kids. Duncan isn't qualified for his office.<br /><br />Would any president appoint a non-medical person to be the Surgeon General? or an non-attorney to be the Attorney General? Since the Department of Education was established during the Carter administration, Democrats and Republicans alike have appointed non-educators to the office. The only Secretary of Education who actually taught in a k-12 public school was Terrel Bell in Reagan's first term. <br /><br />That's the respect that politicians give to educators…it's insulting!Stuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15854925612517206979noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1107550755163115303.post-44208030009002572352013-11-17T07:15:07.260-07:002013-11-17T07:15:07.260-07:00"They say that the Common Core calls for fede..."They say that the Common Core calls for federal collection of student data. For the record, it doesn’t, we’re not allowed to, and we won’t. And let’s not even get into the really wacky stuff: mind control, robots, and biometric brain mapping." --Duncan quote from the second link<br /><br />After the NSA scandal, he really thinks we'll believe this?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03544213160574214282noreply@blogger.com
