Looking Ahead ...

Anne Neal, president of the American Council of Trustees and Alumni, has suggested our colleague, KC Johnson, as an ideal candidate for Secretary of Education in a new administration. He"understands firsthand how the politically correct university is undermining America's ability to understand and sustain itself as a nation," she said. As"a recognized scholar of American military and diplomatic history, KC inspires students at Brooklyn about topics and people that are ignored on many campuses and is an eloquent spokesman for how and why American higher education needs to reclaim its academic mission." Although a member of Historians for Obama, said Neal, Johnson"should be secretary of education in any administration."
