FWIW, I have a friend who has a PhD in education, and is retired, not
fired,
so one can't claim that he is "disgruntled", who shares the opinion
that the
flaws in the system are inherent in the educational philosophy
currently being taught in the colleges of education, and in the
poltical tendency to require the schools to provide more and more
social functions that are not rightly part of education.


So what was he doing to remedy the situation?

What do you think he _can_ do? It's easy to recognize that the carrier is
aground. Getting it off the rocks is a lot harder.
