Education" in the new plan. 'There wtu be
Tess money for excellence. Special Educa-
tion is educational jargon for teaching
stupid kids. Bright kids are looked down
upon as an "elite" group, and they should
be put in their place.
The universities would enjoy seeing
Grade 13 disappear. That would mean
they'd have a warm body for four years, at
a cost to the student of about $4,000 a year,
instead of three.
I am not an old fogey. I am not a reac-

disturbed kids. But I am squarely against
any move toward squelching the brightest
and best of our youth, and sending off to
university people who are in that extreme-
ly vulnerable stage of half -adolescent,
half -adult, and turfing them into classes of
200 or 300, where they are no more than a
cypher on the books of a so-called hall of
learning.
And I have the proof right before me, in
the form of several brilliant essays by
Grade 13 students, better than anything I
ever wrote, who have had a chance to
come to terms with themselves and with
life, in a small class, with a teacher who
knows, likes, and encourages them,, rather
than a remote figure at a podium.
