[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Anyone listen to the Kojo Nmandi show today?[/quote]

I listened.  Jawando only mentioned that he applied to RCF.  He did not mentioned that he also applied and got a spot in RTES.

He otherwise didn't seem that unreasonable.  He said that the programs should be expanded to better meet the demand.  He also said the demand would probably be much larger if there was better outreach to under-served communities and information sessions that did not only occur during the workday.  There was some discussion about the MS/HS magnet programs and inequality there that has existed for decades.  He mentioned that he filed a federal civil suit to try to force the issue of reform that should have come long ago.

He specifically said that he wasn't advocating for the sibling link to be removed, but that they should evaluate more thoroughly the impact of the sibling link (beyond the choice study).  Most importantly, he said that the larger discussions about inequality are being lost in the highly emotionally charged discussions about the sibling link.  (Side note, he has 3 kids; his first is entering K this fall.)[/quote]
