high school graduation rate. but nothing can remain as a victory because while we have these kids graduating, now what happens? so our next iteration, this is what i hope that we can do, is look at high school to career, high school to jobs, job training because there are a lot of jobs that aren't getting filled because kids around prepared when they graduate to fill them. so american graduates, we work with america's promise alliance, all these good organizations. what they said about their partnership with public media, we gave them the megaphone. and alabama, for example, worked with the birmingham y. they took it beyond the concept. it is just such a strong community program. mr. cole: my good friend from california, ms. roybal-allard allard. ms. roybal-allard: thank you, mr. chairman. welcome, ms. harrison. i want to begin by associating myself with the comments of the chairman and the other members of the committee about the tremendous value of the corporation for public broadcasting. as you know, the achie

to get that money and maybe more athletes would graduate then. and that would be good for everybody. and the other thing about it is people will say title 9. you can't do it because you have to compensate the women's athletes. no you don't. you write the bill to say any revenue sport, a sport that makes money for the school, whether it's men's or women's or soccer or whatever it might be that way title 9 isn't an issue. >> let me turn to gentlemen. do you think that there is movement toward athletes. >> yes. it will never happen. the only way it would happen if the athletes themselves went on strike and that's not going to happen. there's a lot of people who thought five years ago that the legal system was going to fix this and it's very very clear that that will not happen. the legal system has basically said and the court of appeals in california that the ncaa, ncaa rules of amateurism violate america's anti-trust laws. but the courts are unwilling to take the next logical step and say therefore you got to get rid of the rule. instead the court

upon graduation, john built a law practice focusing on real estate law. he also made time to help denver's welfare departments and cooperate in the kiwanis club and numerous other organizations. john started what was at one time one of the largest law firms in deny very, where he practiced well -- in denver, where he practiced well into his 80's. it was this family practice which drove neil to pursue jobs at a young age. he mowed lawns, shoveled snow and even shoveled some more snow in the great state of colorado. it was this great work ethic combined with his family's appreciation of higher education. i think this chamber is well-familiar with his academic credentials, receiving his undergraduate degree at columbia, law degree at harvard, a ph.d. atoxford, and a summer at the university of colorado. but intellect alone doesn't get you through the halls of these store rid halls of academic institutions. it requires two other values of the west, two values in addition to other western values that judge gorsuch holds. it is these western perspectives that t

they were seen as very low graduation rates. only about 12 percent of the computer science graduates for women. and then they made big changes. they restructure the introductory classes so students who had no back on it all would still be able to get involved and study the major. the main research opportunities available and they also started sending a female students to this great conference and computing and by making those changes they went from 12 percent to five years later more than half. it is quite remarkable. there are definitely things we can do. >> who is --? >> she is an incredible woman in computing in science. she does have an incredible story of what she worked on. she was an admiral in the navy and there are 70 great stories. >> dan, seattle. good afternoon. >> good afternoon. so nice to have the flashback for the early days of jpl. in 1957, jpl was run by -- and i was fortunate enough to be one of the electronic students drag from caltech and got to work on the antennas for explorer 1 and the satellite. i just w

40,000 and have an incentive to graduate to get that money and maybe more athletes would graduate thenat would be good for everybody. and the other thing about it is, going to say, well title ix. you can't do it because you have to compensate the women's athletes. no, you don't. the women's athletes of yes, because they make the school money. you write the bill or whatever revenue be to say any sport. a sport that makes money for the school, whether it's men's or or whatever iter might be. and that way, title ix isn't an issue. to joe.e turn do you think that there is ofement toward the paying athletes? >> no, no. it will never happen. the only way it would happen is if the athletes themselves went on strike and that's not gonna happen. there are a lot of people who five years ago, that the legal system was going to fix this. and it's very, very clear that will not happen, that the legal system has basically said, and appeals in california, that the ncaa -- amateurism violate america's anti-trust laws. but the courts are unwilling to take the next logical step and gotta get rid you of

in 1971 or 1972, about 5% of law school graduates were female. this time, more women than men were admitted into law school. in the venture a world, in 1971, less than 1% of the entering class was female. this year, 85% of the entering classes were female. we've seen huge shifts in women's access to education and their graduation rates also increase. >> you were here at the historical association participating in a panel on sports races and reform in the 20th century. what was the focus of that? >> our panel as a whole was interested in how those areas intersect and how sports had to deal with racism. we did not put reform in quotation marks, but it was implied in anyways. my part was looking at how race and gender were put throughout each other -- against each other throughout and if we put the word gender in, does it hurt the civil rights act? in title ix, it was part of a much larger bill and that larger bill included provisions that said the federal government would no longer fund busing for purposes of desegregation. so race and gender were

but it was that i think i already mentioned that all of the first graduate students were women. i hadn't put that together in the beginning. and realizing that that happened because of the earlier team of women was a wonderful surprise.that the graduate students all had to be recruited from schools like wellesley. >> it is such a hard question. there are so many points that we are really surprised when finding out these histories. but i guess i was really shocked to learn when i spoke with many of these women and many of the male engineers also how little enthusiasm they had for the early lunar missions. they really felt like it was boring, wiry spending effort going to this dead piece of rock when their plan is to explore? and you really actually see the effect of that because they're working on both of these missions at the same time so they're trying to get these cameras to apollo i'm sorry to the moon to find appropriate landing spots for apollo. and at the same time they are sending off these mariner spacecraft and so our first success in the space race is mariner to in 196

it's the task that every high school graduate is going to have to take to graduate in arizona. the same test a new american takes. these are things -- [ applause ] these are things we've been able to get done at the state level, that i think has been good common-sense leadership. when i look at this new administration, i look at, you know, the education category, the health care sector, and, of course, social services. i mean, to me we've got thousands of arizonans that are out of work. and we've got thousands of job openings. yet we've got the federal government giving people a check every two weeks. we'd like to take these people and give them the job opportunity, the opportunity to build a fulfilling career. i think if we are in a position to ask mother may i to health and human services, or welfare, we can really make the difference at the state level. and that's something i'm looking forward to advocating as a governor this week at the national governors association. >> great. [ applause ] governor brownback? >> thank you, guys. i'm delighted to be here at cpac. fabulous o

most of the adults in the neighborhood were not college graduates. i attended the public schools in my spare time and i played baseball and other sports with my hands and i have happy memories into strong memories in those days and good memories of the good sense and decency of my friends and my neighbors. after i graduated from high school, i went a full 12 miles down the road to a different world when i entered princeton university. a generation earlier i think somebody from my background probably wouldn't have felt fully comfortable at a college like princeton but by the time i graduate from high school, things have changed and this was a time of great intellectual excitement for me. college and law school opened up new worlds of ideas but this was back in the late 1960s and 70s and it was a time of turmoil at colleges and universities and i saw some very smart people and privileged people behaving irresponsibly and i couldn't help making a contrast between some of the worst i saw on the camp was us and the good sense and decency of the people in

so, graduation.cristian mungiu, the romanian director of 4 months, 3 weeks and 2 days, which you remember we reviewed here on the programme some time ago. this is another low—key and very intense drama. the story is a doctor, his daughter is on her way to school, is attacked, she gets a broken wrist and the doctor is just simply worried it will affect her exams. he is desperate for her to get great exam grades because he wants her to be able to go and study in britain. he is convinced that she needs to get away because the place they live is not somewhere that he wants his daughter to grow up. all he can focus on is this desire for her to get good exam grades. as a result of it, he gets drawn into a web of duplicity and corruption. that somebody knows somebody who could perhaps ensure the exam grades are ok, but only in return for a favour for a deputy mayor who needs to be moved up in his wait for a transplant.

two of our students who since graduated crunched what numbers they could find. they were looking at what it means for women to be -- i say, injected -- other people would say integrated into a special forces teams. and they used what they could find in terms of the army's physical fitness test scores. and crunched the numbers and if you make some reasonable -- very reasonable calculations -- out of 76,694 women in the army at the time they did this, a couple years ago, maybe 145 of them would actually be able to meet the minimum apft score to try out for social forces. because we have so politicized this issue, the scrutiny from the hill in terms of insuring that what happens, that women actually make it through, the community itself, the soft community is rife with rumors about what was done to get the two female rangers through ranger school. i have no idea whether the rumors are correct or not. i've heard a number of things second and third hand. the fact that there are rumors itself is extremely problematic in terms of guys assuming what? that there is all s

in my case, i graduated from santa clara back in 1960. my son and his deceased wife graduated 1983.my daughter sheri got her master's degree there in the '90s. my grandchildren graduated 5 or 6 years ago, so we got quite a long history of sobratos that have attended santa clara university, so we just think, you know, it's important to give back to that institution that has shaped our lives, jesuit values. damian: sure, and so, that leads me to the cristo rey, your participation with cristo rey, and the other organizations and agencies and institutions in this valley. social--i don't want to say social justice, but, those who are in agencies into social reform and social justice, is that what the interest is with your family? john: well, i think we like to empower individuals from low-income, marginalized, disenfranchised, you know, at-risk populations. and that is pretty much the definition of the hispanic community, unfortunately. you know, about a third of our population in silicon valley lives below the poverty line. and it's our belief that education is the surest way of poverty

we need every last person zone looking forward to that graduation. it's just wonderful that we have our audience-our audiences and making up one longing to be in our department and see that some members of our community are having their dreams fulfilled by being selected by the chief of the department to enter the academy then to go through the graduation, it just a wonderful thing. >> commissioner covington, thank you. we are in complete agreement with your comments about maintaining the hiring plan adobe fought collectively sought to get. likewise, with our fleet replacement claim. we know all the efforts that we collectively put forward on that so those are definitely two initiatives or line items that we really don't want to compromise on given the number of retirements and given the fact that prolonged period of time we did not have adequate funding for our equipment and are free. >> yes thank you. so the fire boat ais going to be looking at design and functionality and i'm pretty sure aesthetics as well but will you be coming back to the commis

by the time i graduated from high school, things had changed. this was a time of great intellectual excitement for me. both college and law school opened up new worlds of ideas. but this was back in the late 1960's and early 1970's. it was a time of turmoil at colleges and universities. and i saw some very smart people and very privileged people behaving irresponsibly. i couldn't help making a contrast between some of the worst of what i saw on the campus and the good sense and the decency of the people back in my own community. i'm here in part because of my experiences as a lawyer. i had the good fortune to begin my legal career as a law clerk for a judge who really epitomized open-mindedness and fairness. he read the record in detail on every single case that came before me. he insisted on scrupulously following precedence, both the precedence of the supreme court and the decisions of his own court, the third circuit. he taught all of his law clerks that every case has to be decided on an individual basis. and he really didn't have much use f

the african-american museum would not be where it was today if it were not for black college graduates who have fueled this economy, done so much. fallen to wars. we've done everything and finally america is everything what it's supposed to be. we're grateful and thankful for this moment in history. i looked in the oval office and said more african-americans in the oval office than ever before in the history of the united states of america. who knew that it would take president trump to make this happen? we are thankful and we look forward to helping the federal government realize the promise of the executive order. it's not over yet. we still got to get our support that we deserve. thank you very much. >> good afternoon. i'm marcia from bleu field, west virginia. this is an exciting and historic day for all the hbcus collectively but also for each one of our institutions individually. and many who otherwise would not have had that kind of opportunity. today's action shines a spotlight on the accomplishments of our institutions. continue to work with our students, so we continue and lo

graduate of the most prestigious graduate school in france that shapes bosses and politicians and topdarins. and a great deal of those proposals, they have been dusted up, and a bit of glitter has been thrown on them but they are classical proposals of the kind of, system by which france has been administered with a strong influence of the state and attempts to deregulate in a sort of command way. so he has good ideas to change taxes and society, all of this is nice and it sounds very good, there is a great deal of digital land new economy thrown in. he says like many people before him that he wants to make it easier for people to do business but at the end of the day, it isa business but at the end of the day, it is a series of technocratic measures, most of them making sense, some of them being slightly stretched, such as the idea, that cellphones would be forbidden, in classrooms but also, in all of france's schools, it is very well known that in france, in french prisons, there are cellphones everywhere, even though they are forbidden. i don't know how they can do this in schools.

graduate school. i think, why not develop those skills earlier on and not leave it to learning on the job process? >> to add to that, i think that i just want to echo the point about flexible thinking. demonstrating the ability to think flexibly and place historical thinking in the context of thought presses that are going on, i think that is the essential skill. it is easy to think that we don't, i mean, i agree wholeheartedly, but i also think we do actually develop the skills as historians. we just employ them a little bit differently. when you are a subject matter expert, you are being asked all the time to explain your book on this specific thing and where it fits within the broader historiography of american history or european history or whatever it is. you have to think about, well, i know as a legal historian, i am really interested in the development of the beginner doctrine. but if i want to speak to someone who is interested in social or cultural history in a broader way, i need to describ

i think that is something that could be taught more to graduate students. the other thing, specifically for federal historians is learning more about how to do institutional history, which again, is something i learned about doing, i read examples of as a graduate student, but i did not try to do it myself until i was beyond graduate school. i think, why not develop those skills early on and not leave it to learning on the job -- process. ,> to add to that, i think that their point about flexible thinking, i think that is demonstrating the ability to place historical thinking in the context of all other kinds of processes going on i think the essential skill. it is easy to think that, i agree wholeheartedly with eric, but i also think we develop those skills as historians. we employ them differently when your subject matter experts are being asked all of the time to explain why or where your book on where this thing sits in the broader spectrum of european or american history, or whatever it is community think about, well, i know as a legal historian i am a
