I've never seen any VIP laugh about illiteracy or 'ha ha dumb is cool' - I guess I missed the regional Jessica Simpson judged.
What I have seen is some very powerful people who give the clear message that the students in the stands have a clear advantage on the speakers themselves - access to an innovative and exciting program that can catapult any one of the kids higher than said speakers.
And I'd hate for some of my students to miss out on this potential inspiration because they were tightening a 10-32 bolt.
