#1 He said the decision to consider cutting the labs in order to redirect resources to underperforming students was virtually unanimous.

With equality comes responsibility. Without responsibility it simply becomes privilege where one receives without accord to merit. Equality of opportunity was what the entire civil rights movement of the middle part of the 20th Century was about. It has been hijacked into the neo-communists/socialist equality of outcome regardless of merit.

Translation: The Lefties at Berzerkley think black and Latino children are too stupid to learn anything useful or difficult.

The Left is full of bigoted bastards.

#4 Not so much Frank. Ain't many and not much better. You'd be thinking of moving. I've lived in Oakland and as soon as my last is safely in college, I might move back. It is beautiful. But there's only a couple of (and I mean two) places west of the tunnels to send your kids for school. And getting in is a crap shoot.
