Was Kissinger right when he said that the reason academic battles are so fierce is that there is so little at stake? Whether brain or fingertips, can't we all just get along?</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>; )</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Lotsa questions...</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Thom Prentice</DIV> <DIV>College of Education</DIV> <DIV>Southwest Texas State University,</DIV> <DIV>San Marcos, TX</DIV></DIV></BODY></HTML> ********************************************************************** Contributions: bourdieu-AT-lists.village.virginia.edu Commands: majordomo-AT-lists.village.virginia.edu Requests: bourdieu-approval-AT-lists.village.virginia.edu
