Clarification of Sunday Opinion
When I read the article entitled Focus on Teachers, Sunday July 5, I was disturbed at the statement “More money only improves the good programs and initiatives; it does not make stars out of dung.” It could be inferred that some our children are dung. “Oh, that was me that said that!” Shame on me for a lack of clarity, I am sure that some of my former students at U.T.B. are pleased to see that “Clear, concise and persuasive” can be forgotten in the passion of the subject, even by the instructor.
What was meant was that some if not many of the formal programs are little more than dung, that only provide jobs for administrators to “coordinate” them. In fact many programs do little; it is the teacher who stirs the interest in education and self-betterment in the child, even when the family, cannot spend enough time, as they must work just to provide for a survival existence.
