Associations Join Effort on College-Readiness Standards

September 22, 2011, 4:29 pm

Three education organizations are collaborating on college-readiness standards for elementary and secondary schools. The American Association of State Colleges and Universities, the Council of Chief State School Officers, and the State Higher Education Executive Officers announced today that teams in seven states would work to identify effective ways to put in place the common set of learning goals for schoolchildren. Those goals, called the Common Core State Standards, have been adopted by 44 states and the District of Columbia. The state-level teams will be drawn from Kentucky, Maine, Massachusetts, Missouri, Oregon, Tennessee, and Wisconsin.

Dislike of something is the result of fear? Always? Are you sure?

And, as I trust has been made amply clear, the fact that somebody chooses not to use a highly esoteric, irregular, and foreign spelling for an ordinary stinky vegetable does not necessarily mean they aren’t aware of that spelling. Especially in these venues.

Thanks for reiterating my point. You say “There’s no cachet to fear.” So the promoters of Normalization of Homosexual Practice advocates used the term ‘homophobe’ to try to stigmatize all opposition. No doubt when if ever our Nanny Government decides to compel us to eat brockley, they will label the opposition as “brockleyphobes”, however unfounded or even ridiculous such a labelling might be.
