Hi,
Yesterday I learned that corporations like ExxonMobil were working with community colleges on curriculum so that the school produced students that Exxon could hire for their company. They have 9 community colleges in Texas that they work with. Other corps are doing the same thing in other areas.
Microsoft has worked with and sponsored grade schools for a number of yrs, but I never heard of the above.
Many corporations support immigration reform to get the already educated and trained people into this country. Must we now give over the Education system to corporations so that tomorrows workers will be able to support our standard of living.? Interesting question I think.
