Environmental & Science Education, Poetry, Art and Environment
Ed Hessler
Good morning, it is Friday, January 15 2021.
Converted to hours 15 days is 360; to percent of year 4.11%. Sunrise is at 7:47am, sunset is at 4:57pm, and there are 9h 10m, 39m of sunlight.
On this day in 1929 was born Martin Luther King Jr. (born Michael King, Jr).
Two quotations by Dr. King on education from the Morehouse College Newspaper, The Maroon Tiger, 1947:
The function of education is to teach one to think intensively and and to think critically. Intelligence plus character--that is the true goal of education.
If we are not careful, our colleges will produce a group of close-minded, unscientific, illogical propagandists, consumed with immoral acts. Be careful, 'brethren!' Be careful, teachers!
Today's poem is by Dudley Randall.
