and melissa hars-lacewell, prfessor of politics and african american studs at princeton universi.tart th you. how mucdo you think race is a part of at we are hearing, this anger we've been heari during the past couple ofonths espially? >> certaiy, no one can quantify the percente or the amountf criticism and exactly what 's coming from. there's no estion people have princled disagreement with the president. there's also no questi that if one h principled disagreement with a persoof color and you choose not express it simply because that person is bck or latino or asian, that tt is actually re racist than going ahe and expressing your disagreement. but i think it'slso clear-- and this is what predent carter ked us to think about-- that in this particular contt of american htory, at this moment with a black presint, we needo be particularly ceful about how we frame and w we talk about our disagreements because it's car also, that racial anims and bigotry, has found its wainto e opposition in a way that's quite distracti from the principled positions t opposition may have >> ifill:or

here in my return w york life i e the columbia universy library and also the new york public library for that sort of thing and then on by what i can. for race research i suppose the main source of it is i try to read as much about race as possible. i think it could be said by either read or skim one book on race every week i tried to read the books by people ion't agree with amuch as the ones who i do. and i gue the research comes from doing that. when you are in the positn i am and you get sent an awful lot of books a asked to read you a lot of books so that's something that works for me so there's that research process and in the fact is that in 2008 a lot of research is on line ands reading her blogs and references you get from their. i have all sorts of sites i regularly go to and learn all sorts of things and so research is something that happens in many ways but for me is a matter of being a free to haul it so i need my text. i feel deprived if i don't engage with text to a certain amount every day so that is how one does research. >> due to separate the and research from the

that the y education has gone that broad-based knowledge and skills that people need going into a universi or some type of trade is no different whatsoever. we definitely cater toward students going into any of those areas. to be honest, after talking with many, many employers that would employ not only engineer's people in the trades and indeed, they all work together. the philosophy of teaching these broadbased skills only helps them work together when they get in the real world and . i guess i would encourage everyone to understand that the broad based avenue of education and giving, 16 years old. giving these in people all sorts of options and teaching them all sorts of things that is not only going to help them make the correct decision for them, but also to help an entire company work together better. i agree. their needs to be more discussion and probably less time arguing and more time working together find a happy medium. >> thank you. our next question please. >> high. but just wanted to expand the question about the assessment and program evaluation. the importan of the progr

so it was already kind of a really, really lucky break for me and there's some stuff at columbia universi as well and i got some things out at berkeley so i was able to do some of the research here which really helped but it was my researcher in moscow. i had a real vision for what i wanted to do with this book. so i was able to funnel questions to her and then she would really go out into the countryside and deal with -- [inaudible] >> ah, how did i find her? there is actually a woman in san francisco who is a friend of a friend, who's here, and i talked to her about -- she deals a lot with the russian community here and knewmmigrants to the area, and she actually knew the woman who turned out to be my researcher from her efforts. and she put me in touch with this woman not because she thought i would be my researcher but had connections to someone with my researcher and when we met in moscow and talked she was excited -- as excited about the story as i was and agreed to quit her current job and work with me as a researcher. so it was really so lucky. .. >> so that diagio not only know i

one of those universies, northeastern h or will have a program where it's taking the students who have received a high schoolloma but may not have yet had the necessary skills it move on to higher education that northeastern is establishing a program where the students will go there for a grade 13 if you will or grade 14 similar kinds of situations occur nationally with good junior colleges if you will. those students will enchance their schools, the idea is that they will be able aft a year and most to be able to move on to northeastern or any other schools. i mentioned the teacher residency programs. i think we aught to try to fund those. i would argue we aught to do it with principals as well. in my testimony and the written comments that i have left you, i've talked about the fact that turn around is not something you just add to your portfolio. mo of us who has been in this business did not get training in how to turn around public school districts. whether there's a skill set or not, i'll leave that to others. but i would suggest to you that with the concerns that sort of reach p
