    “Calico Pie,
    The little Birds fly
    Down to the calico tree,
    Their wings were blue,

    Till away they flew—
    And they never came back to me!”

    “While most of today’s jobs do not require great intelligence, they do require greater frustration tolerance, personal discipline, organization, management, and interpersonal skills than were required two decades and more ago. These are precisely the skills that many of the young people who are staying in school today, as opposed to two decades ago, lack.”
    —James P. Comer (20th century)
