“La la la, Oh music swims back to me
and I can feel the tune they played
the night they left me
in this private institution on a hill.”

“We are now a nation of people in daily contact with strangers. Thanks to mass transportation, school administrators and teachers often live many miles from the neighborhood schoolhouse.

—James P. Comer (20th century)
