I wasn't aware of what the FF envisioned for public education- but makes sense. I've often wondered why industry didn't take up education as their purview- in order to get workers they needed to be successful- remember the "industry towns"? Those towns had nice schools provided by the one factory that employed the town.

Seems to me that some community and technical colleges seem to be making up the slack for our HS's not turning out competent workers. And universities are making up for our HS's not turning out competent thinkers...
