A Big City Mayor Looks at Education in Cities.
Gibson, Kenneth A.
Cross Reference: A Journal of Public Policy and Multicultural Education, v1 n1 p56-59 Jan-Feb 1978, 78
Education affects virtually everyone in a city. More than any other service provided by a municipality, education influences whether people decide to remain in or move from a city. The school system is often the bellwether of what the future will bring--deterioration, unrest, diminishing resources, or improvement and innovations. (Author/EB)
