Famous quotes containing the words service and/or record:

    “The ability to think straight, some knowledge of the past, some vision of the future, some skill to do useful service, some urge to fit that service into the well-being of the community,—these are the most vital things education must try to produce.”
    —Virginia Crocheron Gildersleeve (1877–1965)

    “We have what I would call educational genocide. I’m concerned about learning totally, but I’m immersed in the disastrous record of how many black kids are going into science. They are very few and far between. I’ve said that when I see more black students in the laboratories than I see on the football field, I’ll be happy.”
    —Jewel Plummer Cobb (b. 1924)
