Education Myths III

This Saturday, we will welcome Marcus Winters, contributor to Education Myths : What Special-Interest Groups Want You to Believe About Our Schools and Why it Isn't So, to the Northern Alliance Radio Network show. The books lists eighteen education myths and, to warm up for the appearance, I'm going to post three a day through Saturday. Here's seven through nine:

The Myth of Decline--"Schools are performing much worse than they used to."

The Graduation Myth--"Nearly all students graduate from college."

The College Access Myth--"Nonacademic barriers prevent a lot of minority students from entering college."

Stay tuned for more throughout the week.
