Debunking the Middle-Class Myth

Why Diverse Schools Are Good for All Kids

By: Eileen Gale Kugler

Many parents search for a 'good' school to enroll their children. They look at the school's standardized test scores and check out demographic statistics, but fail to investigate the strengths of these schools that have a vibrant mix of races and cultures. Eileen Gale Kugler offers a unique perspective on what every educator, parent, and community leader should know about reaping the rich harvest of our diverse schools. This book provides guidance on how we can all work together to dispel the myths and nurture the opportunities that these schools offer such as academic challenge and social advantages. Anecdotes from Kugler's personal experience are included as well as information from 80 interviews with key educators, parents, and students. This book stands alone as a resource that pulls all of this information together. Will be of interest to anyone who cares about education. See Wendy Burt-Thomas's interview with author Eileen Kugler at http://askwendy.wordpress.com/?s=kugler

Universal Service in a Competitive Local Exchange Telecommunications Environment

By: Donald Gale

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

Universal Service in a Competitive Local Exchange Telecommunications Environment

By: Donald Gale

The telecommunications industry has evolved into a very competitive industry since 1980. Aggressive competition is the norm in the long distance, equipment, operator services and many other segments of the industry. The remaining segment of the market without widespread meaningful competition is the "last-mile" wireline service to the customer premise. Incumbent local exchange carriers enjoy a monopoly to serve nearly all residences and most business customers, collecting over 99% of all local exchange service revenues. Using their monopoly status, incumbents have developed a cross-subsidy system which uses the rates paid by some customers to lower the rates paid by others to support a policy known as "universal service." This policy has resulted in telephone service reaching 94% of America's households. Carriers claim that this policy cost them $20 billion annually, potential entrants claim the true cost is as low as $4 billion and the rest is profit. In the Telecommunications Act of 1996, Congress ordered the end of the local exchange monopoly and opened the local markets to competition. Congress also specified the continuation of universal service, specified that telephone penetration should be increased and specified that the universal service concept will be applied to America's schools, libraries and rural health centers. Congress also specified that, unlike today, all carriers will contribute fairly and equitably fairly to the universal service fund and that all carriers providing local service, including new competitors, will be eligible to receive support from the fund. The cost to meet these requirements in a competitive environment totals $7.2 billion, or 5.1% of net carrier revenue. This thesis addresses the definition of universal service and the services that should be eligible for support, the new competitive environment, how to collect the universal service support fund, and how to best distribute the funds to customers targeted to receive support from the system: those in high-cost areas, low-income consumers, and schools and libraries for advanced communications services.

Mumford, Tate, Eiseley

Watchers in the Night

By: Gale H. Carrithers, Jr.

Though of diverse backgrounds and training, Mumford, Tate, and Eisley shared remarkably concordant and convincing views of the state of twentieth-century American society. All three considered America to be benighted by a dominant myth -- the "myth of the machine," in Mumford's phrase -- that resulted in cultural degeneration. Through an examination of selected works of each critic, Carrithers explains how these writers both identified and fought against this myth. Carrithers asserts that Mumford, Tate, and Eisley in their essays revived prophecy as a mode of expression and as a means of appraising culture in a broad historical context. Like the biblical prophets, the three concerned themselves not so much with the future as with the present. They sought to unmask the falseness, the moral emptiness, of a reductive, abstractive, mechanized model of the world. Carrithers considers Mumford as he moved from conflicted stances in the four volumes of The Renewal of Life to the more assured and comprehensive vision of society he portrayed in the two-volume The Myth of the Machine. He examines Tate's critique of American culture as it developed from his youthful involvement with the Fugitives and Agrarians to, in later years, an increasingly coherent but comber construal of the world's plight. Finally, he describes Eisley's fully emergent rejection of reductive scientism and temporalism -- a large part of "all that is crushing us," Eisley wrote -- evident in The Immense Journeyand other books. Mumford, Tate, and Eisley -- these "watchers in the night" -- all wrote against the grain of most of their contemporaries, posing questions about generally accepted current values and proffering alternatives that would make the world a more humane and transcendent place. Gale Carrithers' thoughtful, chalenging analysis of their efforts will be required reading for anyone who wishes a better understanding of our age.
