We have to rescue ordsprog

We have to rescue the university system. We can't send kids to school and have them come out with a $10,000 or $15,000 debt.

Given the recent Texas Supreme Court decision requiring a restructure of the state school finance system by June 2006, the legislature will meet in early January to accomplish this task. Why approve $44 million in new debt now, when a new finance system may fund proposed bond expenditures at the state level and existing debt could be impacted by more restrictive property tax limits? The debt portion of our school tax has increased by 82 percent in just six years and taxpayers are feeling exhausted.

.We got to the point of identifying the value of the debt in 2003/2004, entered into four-way discussions - Ministry of Finance and Planning, Ministry of Justice, the university and the law school - to agree on the debt. The Ministry of Finance then proposed a payment plan to clear the debt and that's the plan we are working with.

It's very worrisome to our kids. They come out of [undergraduate] school with $30,000 or $40,000 in debt, and then they marry someone with $30,000 or $40,000 in debt.

For years the urban poor, mainly minorities, have been the victims of a failed school system. Pumping billions of dollars into that same system has not and will not fix the problem. What will is giving those parents real choice, the opportunity to send their child to a school that will actually educate their child.

We've seen a sea change, a real shift over the past generation from a system where less than half of students left with debt and now two-thirds leave with debt. Now, it's become the norm to leave with debt -- and often with a lot of debt.

Robert Shireman

The concept to everything above the line is comparing how we operate the school system one year to the next. Below the line is debt service, but the comparative costs are not included because the debt service fluctuates too much.

If we had a magic wand, every school would be where parents want to send kids and kids want to go. Pragmatically, we need to phase it in.

Neither the University of Michigan nor its law school uses a quota system.

There are an increasing number of talented young people who 20 or 30 years ago would have gone to university who are not because university no longer means what it used to and they do not want to saddled with high levels of debt.

I would like to offer whatever I have to offer as a help. I've spent most of my time in Staunton working with programs for kids. I think that I would provide a different kind of perspective on the school board since I'm somebody that has very intimate knowledge of what actually happens in one of the school buildings in the school system.

The school system had little to offer when his father died. Mary King came to the school and met with Colby and other kids in the same situation.

If the government is going to mandate levels and punish schools for failing, they should send that money to the school system.

In Europe, kids learn at least four languages before they're out of high school. But our education system is so underfunded, they go to school to buy heroin and an AK [-47 assault rifle].

Eddie Griffin (1968-)

This war is not our war, ... As a mother, not just as a minister, send your kids to school. It's the right thing to do.
