One-on-One with Colbert: Secretary Arne Duncan

TUE, OCTOBER 6, 3:22 PM EST

Posted by Secretary Arne Duncan



Yesterday, I went on the Colbert Report to discuss my goals for education in this country. We talked about the importance of increasing our expectations for every child. As I meet with teachers, students, parents and administrators across the country on my Listening and Learning Tour, we all agree that everyone has to take responsibility for our children.

Solutions: We have to recruit the absolutely best teachers, inspire every high school student to graduate, and turn around our low-performing schools.

Before the interview, Stephen and I went one-on-one on the basketball court. He made several impressive shots, including one off the wall and an unbelievably long three-pointer. He’s got some game.

Next time Stephen is in DC, I challenge him to another game. Rightardia featured the Colbert Report on Arne Duncan on October 6: http://rightardia.blogspot.com/2009/10/colbert-report-on-education.html
