Bitter, I taught college level for 18 years, loved it when I started, but finally walked away and never looked back. Things were actually pretty good until the 70's, when all the Fed programs (or should I say pogroms) started flooding the campuses with Affirmative Action students. Hard to teach college courses to people with a 5th grade level education, paying students that actually wanted to learn and older post grad folks. Colleges started churning out undereducated teachers, teaching rewritten history to further brainwash our kids. Have to say, I saw this coming 40 years ago and it isn't pretty.

Time To Opt Out of Creepy Fed Ed Data-Mining Racket

Last week, I reported on the federal government's massive new student-tracking database, which was created as part of the nationalized Common Core standards scheme.

The bad news: GOP "leadership" continues to ignore or, worse, enable this Nanny State racket (hello, Jeb Bush).

The good news: An independent grassroots revolt outside the Beltway bubble is swelling. Families are taking their children's academic and privacy matters out of the snoopercrats' grip and into their own hands. You can now download a Common Core opt-out/disclosure form to submit to your school district, courtesy of the Truth In American Education group: http://truthinamericaneducation.com/uncategorized/ccss-parent-opt-out-form/
