Greetings to all,<br><br>In response to BAMN's call to action, I'd like to suggest that those of us who are going to be in town during the Spring
Break mobilize <b>a rally in Springfield for March 23</b>. We should not allow them to pass anti-education/anti-student legislation in the quiet of the Spring Break when they think the oppositional voices could not be raised in Springfield. <br>
<br>I also think that an integral part of the work should be to debunk the myth that the outrageous salaries and benefits
that the Administration distributes among its "top echelon" is necessary for "attracting the best talents and rewarding excellence." <br><br>
Any thoughts?<br><br> Niloofar Shambayati<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Sat, Mar 12, 2011 at 10:33 AM, Ben Rothschild <span dir="ltr"><<a rel="nofollow" ymailto="mailto:rothsch2@gmail.com" target="_blank" href="mailto:rothsch2@gmail.com">rothsch2@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>
