I had the honor of singing at Osage's alum banquet last Sunday and the first speaker was on the US board of ag. She was told by the president of the board of education to inspire us to do something in her speech.
This speaker talked about the value of a good education and how her parents and her community brought her up to know the value of a good education and how to use one.
She sounded very concerned for our youth that they are not getting these values as they grow up and that we are going to be no better off in this country if we do nothing to help these kids out.
This speaker used a phrase in her speech that my group based our I movie presentation on. This phrase was "Think globe-ly(sp?) act locally" Her speech tied into our thesis fairly well when she talked about how we all need to start somewhere and do our part, and if nothing is done our education system will continue to fail.
