With apologies
With apologies to any of you all who are teachers, or whose parents are teachers, it is true that "Those who can, do; those who can't, teach; and those who can't teach, teach teachers."
During my days on campus, the weeniest people were always education majors. My room mate and little brother flunked out of the business school, and was welcomed into the School of Education with a scholarship. They accepted everyone.
Of course, now these weenies have banded together as the Teachers Union (NEA, AFT) and are the single most powerful force opposing improvements in education, except they do want more jobs for teachers and higher pay, with less accountability.
About 15 percent of Georgia's students are now home schooled or in private schools, and that's the fastest growing stat in education.
