[quote=Anonymous]it was coined to get policymakers to actually fund and emphasis math & science as the country was falling behind and kids graduating without skills for today's jobs. There were different phases of attempts to get more money for math/science in the 80s & 90s - and in the 2000s/age of STEM is when it started kicking in. It's a stupid term, but it was better than things like "America Counts" [/quote]
