By the time they reach middle school, more than half of the African American

The Urban Strategies Council report identified several risk factors facing

来自主题: GunsAndGears版 - 请问大家一个GUN FREE SCHOOL ZONE的问题
不知我的理解是否正确:
根据GFSZ(请看附文),如果一个人没有CCW,即使一个州(如德州)规定车里也可放
枪,那如果这枪不是UNLOADED而且是锁在箱子里的话,那他/她只要车里有枪,而且
1000FEET之内通过SCHOOL ZONE,那就犯法了。在美国大部分城市,我想几乎很难
1000FEETS内开车不经过SHOOL ZONE吧?
当初我在HOUSTON ACADEMY买枪的时候,特意问了小二,小二没说要用箱子把枪锁起来
啊,所以当时我只是放在TRUNK里。而我在开车回家的时候,我肯定在1000FEETS 之内
经过了不少于一个的SCHOOL ZONE,那是否我已犯了GFSZ这个法呢?还是我知其一不知
其二?
还有一个问题就是,当联邦法和州法不一致时,我该遵守哪个呢?还是只能选择遵守严
格的那一个?请明白人请点一下(如果能引出法律条文更好),非常感谢!

Sara Couvillon, a student at Hoover High School in Birmingham, threatened

The 15-year-old, assisted by the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC), argued

这位大侠的sample更大一些。
我也是刚知道一个operating research 方面的,是 11万 entry;
看来在我的sample 里面,OR也是要低一些。。
我猜的哈,因为 OR 不是那种纯 finance 方面,比较偏
engineering方向;所以在 b-school里面,会比较低一些。
整体来说,因为 b-school的faculty 收入不是靠funding,
而是比较靠under 和 MBA 学生的tuition,另外一部分
好像还是靠毕业后成功校友的捐赠这些。。
我是工科的,所以相对对工科比较了解一些。
顺便扯一些工科;大家也可以看到一些 b-school和
engineering school的比较。。可能大家都是知道的,
权当我废话两句。
enginner school的faculty是要申请funding的。
因而他们的薪水一部分是学校给,另外一部分是从

学校意义的看法。我觉得学校的意义有三个,一个是培养孩子人际社交能力,让她/他

来自主题: Parenting版 - chinese immersion school, your opinion!
Hello, it seems that you know quite a bit about immersion programs and
schools.
My son is 5 years old this year and is going to k. so we have to make up our
mind now. My home is not zoned for a good school, so we are either thinking
about this immersion program school or have to buy a new house somewhere.
Can you let me know the names of the schools that turn out well but have a
hard time in the first few years? especially the school that has to start in
a house?
I just wonder as a Chinese speak... 阅读全帖

来自主题: Parenting版 - 关于private school的问题
借机讨论一下private school吧。。。
听公司一个老移民说,要是有条件上private school还是要送子女上private school的
,对学生的attention不是public school可以比的。尤其到高中,至少可以把学生送到
比public school高一个档次的大学。
大家觉得有必要上private school吗?本来准备小朋友要上小学的时候搬到一个public
school从小学到高中相当好的学区去。那里的小学5所都是10粉,高中全州排名第一。
但想想是不是private school更能够发挥孩子的潜能呢?或是说public school靠家长
推,而private school就是学校帮家长推了,而且推得更有章法些?

Smash the ‘Bamboo Ceiling’ of Racial Quotas
One Indian American says he overcame anti-Asian bias and got into med
school by claiming he was black.
By John Fund — April 5, 2015
A group of Asian-American students has filed suit against Harvard’s
admissions policy, charging that it seeks to limit the number of Asian
students much like quotas held down the number of Jewish students
until the 1920s. For example, one of the students Harvard rejected, an
unnamed child of Chinese immigrants, had perf... 阅读全帖

The nation’s per-pupil spending on K-12 public schools dropped in 2013 for
the third year in a row, reversing more than a decade of funding increases,
according to federal data released Wednesday.
Spending continued to vary widely across the country, from a low of $6,432
per student in Utah to a high of $20,530 per student in the District of
Columbia. The biggest spenders were largely clustered in the Northeast,
while the lowest were in the West and Southeast.
The national average was $10,763, d... 阅读全帖

来自主题: Chicago版 - Chicago Magnet schools
Actually, in Chicago, there are two groups of schools
(1) Elementary schools (K-8) (some classical k-6)
(2) High schools (9-12)
Chicago does not have middle schools, and the suburns have middle schools (6
-8).
All Chicago schools in the list are elementary schools, except for Young
Magnet High school, which has an academic center (7-8).
