  12. Are Asians model minority students because they face fewer cultural barriers? -Likely not "Many of the factors that seem to have a bearing on high achievement for Asian students relate to home environments and social structures outside of school. For example, many Asian American parents set high expectations for their children’s education, as evidenced by such activities as monitoring their children’s school performance, obtaining information about school curriculum and college requirements, encouraging participation in out of school learning activities, and holding their children responsible for their own learning. This may reflect the fact that many Asian immigrant parents were often very motivated to come to the U.S. and made sacrifices to provide their children with better educational and economic opportunities. Perhaps mirroring the values of their parents, many Asian American students are themselves strongly motivated and put considerable effort into schoolwork. Asian Americans spend a greater than average time on school assignments and engage in helpful study habits, such as forming study groups.” Nancy Kober, et al Policy Implications of Trends for Asian American Students Student Achievement Policy Brief, #2Center on Education Policy June 30, 2010

  13. “Ideally, what should be said to every child, repeatedly, throughout his or her school life is something like this: 'You are in the process of being indoctrinated. We have not yet evolved a system of education that is not a system of indoctrination. We are sorry, but it is the best we can do. What you are being taught here is an amalgam of current prejudice and the choices of this particular culture. The slightest look at history will show how impermanent these must be. You are being taught by people who have been able to accommodate themselves to a regime of thought laid down by their predecessors. It is a self-perpetuating system. Those of you who are more robust and individual than others will be encouraged to leave and find ways of educating yourself — educating your own judgements. Those that stay must remember, always, and all the time, that they are being moulded and patterned to fit into the narrow and particular needs of this particular society.” ― Dorris Lessing, The Golden Notebook

  14. “A good head and good heart are always a formidable combination. But when you add to that a literate tongue or pen, then you have something very special.” - Nelson Mandela

  15. “The whole educational and professional training system is a very elaborate filter, which just weeds out people who are too independent, and who think for themselves, and who don't know how to be submissive, and so on -- because they're dysfunctional to the institutions.” - Noam Chomsky

  16. Pell Grants are, and have been, critically important tools in making higher education a possibility for lower and middle income students. – Christopher Dodd Read

  17. If you don't like what someone has to say, argue with them. – Noam Chomsky

  18. The intellectual tradition is one of servility to power, and if I didn't betray it I'd be ashamed of myself. – Noam Chomsky

  19. "The differences in measured skills between blacks and whites are enormous. By age 17, the average black student is performing at around the 20th percentile of the white distribution. This performance feeds directly into further schooling and into the labor market, continuing the cycle of inequality.” - Eric A. Hanushek, Steven G. Rivkin School Quality and the Black-White Achievement Gap NBER Working Paper, no. 12651 National Bureau of Economic Research October 2006

  20. ”How important are these social pressures? Although that story has yet to be fully told, in my view, the prevalence of acting white in schools with racially mixed student bodies suggests that social pressures could go a long way toward explaining the large racial and ethnic gaps in SAT scores, the underperformance of minorities in suburban schools, and the lack of adequate representation of blacks and Hispanics in elite colleges and universities.” - Roland G. Fryer Acting White Education Next The Hoover Institution 2006

  21. "[…] the relatively low performance of Latino students, who in less than a generation will comprise roughly three in ten American children, is an urgent issue. The nation’s economic and social well-being will be compromised without efforts at all levels of government to develop policies to increase achievement for Latino young people.” - Nancy Kober, et al. Improving Achievement for the Growing Latino Population is Critical to the Nation’s Future Student Achievement Policy Brief, #3 Center on Education Policy June 30, 2010

  22. "Grouping by ability is most prevalent in schools having about half their populations composed of white students. The proportion becomes relatively low both when whites dominate and when they make up a low percentage of students. This observation is consistent with those that claim tracking is de facto racial segregation.” - Peter G. VanderHart Why do some schools group by ability? Some evidence from the NAEP The American Journal of Economics and Sociology, Volume 65, Number 2 Blackwell Publishing April 2006

  23. "Ability grouping rarely benefits overall achievement, but it can contribute to inequality of achievement,as students in high groups gain and low-group students fall farther behind. The more rigid the tracking system, the more likely these patterns are to emerge.”- Adam Gamoran Synthesis of Research /Is Ability Grouping Equitable? Education Ladership, Volume 50, Number 2 Association for Supervision and Curriculum Development October 1992

  24. "But if 'the poor shall always be with us,' so too will low test scores and other aspects of disadvantaged students’ inadequate achievement. It is unreasonable and irresponsible to expect schools and teachers to overcome social class differences while exempting every other institution and public official from taking action to do so.” - Richard Rothstein If “The Poor Will Always Be with US”, So Too Will Low Test Scores Cato Unbound Institute April 22, 2008

  25. "For those who are interested in schools that produce academic success for minority students, there is no lack of examples, past and present. Tragically, there is a lack of interest by the public school establishment in such examples. Again, I think this goes back to the politics of education. Put bluntly, failure attracts more money than success. Politically, failure becomes a reason to demand more money, smaller classes, and more trendy courses and programs, ranging from 'black English' to bilingualism and 'self-esteem.' Politicians who want to look compassionate and concerned know that voting money for such projects accomplishes that purpose for them and voting against such programs risks charges of mean-spiritedness, if not implications of racism.” - Thomas Sowell The Education of Minority Children Hoover Institution 2001

  26. I may sometimes be willing to teach for nothing, but if paid at all, I shall never do a man's work for less than a man's pay. – Clara Barton
