6:30-8:00 p.m.Noted critic of the current corporate "reform" efforts, Diane Ravitch, will be speaking in San Francisco on January 18th at the Herbst Theatre in San Francisco from 6:30-8:00 p.m.
Jointly hosted by UESF, CTA, and the CFT, the 'Evening with Diane Ravitch' event will be a chance to hear first-hand from one of the leading education voices in the country. An architect of NCLB in the Bush administration, Ravitch has since seen the problems with pushing a test-driven agenda in our schools, becoming perhaps the nation's foremost critic of corporate reform efforts in our schools and their free-market approach to public education.

Free tickets are available for UESF members on a first-come first-served basis. Email mkimura@uesf.org to reserve your tickets. There is a four ticket limit per member.
