When I was at my engineering school we got two huge donations one so large they renamed the college of engineering after the person. You don't often get that in the arts.JPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10558223768083081399noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14243811.post-7685564361747340272009-08-13T18:59:35.774-04:002009-08-13T18:59:35.774-04:00@ThinkGohard

That same connontation carried into the stimulus debate earlier this year when money for the arts was stripped from the bill. <br /><br />The arts are viewed as something extra and not a necessary part of a complete education and fulfilling life, from their diminishing and optional position in K-12 education, especially in urban schools to the need for bake sales in collegiate settings. Until that sentiment changes I think that there will continue to be a vast funding disparity between the arts and the sciencesarieswymhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06395950518010428488noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14243811.post-24457427562440329682009-08-13T13:43:32.792-04:002009-08-13T13:43:32.792-04:00your dropping knowledge fam... keep it upyour dropping knowledge fam... keep it upThinkGoHardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15834395704420641773noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14243811.post-70557338145714651562009-08-12T18:11:35.423-04:002009-08-12T18:11:35.423-04:00Yeah, Chomp-Chomp doesn't get play in mainstra...Yeah, Chomp-Chomp doesn't get play in mainstram media, arguably because of his position of Israel & Palestine.<br /><br />I hear you re-avoding a Depression, however, I would imagine that this distinction is based on whomever is being asked/analyed.<br /><br />Thanks for stopping by.<br /><br />~m.Model Minorityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18364810029145290617noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14243811.post-7193669466371921682009-08-12T16:51:54.949-04:002009-08-12T16:51:54.949-04:00So good to hear of Chomsky, and of his view on thi...So good to hear of Chomsky, and of his view on this, thank you. He gets WAY too little attention in the U.S., despite being in its highest rank of intellectuals. <br /><br />Yes, despite claims that the U.S. has avoided another Depression, I don't see any reversal at all of the general movement toward enrichment of the very few and emiseration of the rest.macon dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07795547197817128339noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14243811.post-14711135446489852692009-08-12T11:52:09.302-04:002009-08-12T11:52:09.302-04:00I responded to your comment, but google ate it.
