[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I read the NAACP testimony from Monday night's hearing. They are not in favor of Options 1 or 7. They are in favor of Option 11, because it has two-way bussing, despite its awful utilization numbers (if you think 7 is bad, look at 11!). I'm confused why they didn't support Option 9, one of the original options, which has two-way bussing, and a great balance of FARMS, demographics, and utilization. I'm guessing it wasn't popular with Somerset and CCES, but it's curious to me. Anyone have any insight?[/quote] Actually, I have some insight on this. The NAACP has a policy where they will only publicly endorse two way bussing options. It is their policy. Privately, I had a NAACP member tell me they are deeply concerned about the inequity in the diversity numbers in Option 7, they find it problematic but can not take a public stand for Option 1 because it goes against NAACP policy of only supporting two way bussing.
