“A RESPONSE TO TIGER MOM:  HOW SHOULD WE BE EDUCATING AND RAISING OUR CHILDREN IN TODAY’S WORLD?”

You are invited to a symposium sponsored by the College of Education

and Information Sciences and the School of Continuing Education at

The C.W. Post Campus of Long Island University

March 25, 2011

1:30 - 4:00 p.m.

Humanities Hall, Room 119

This interactive panel discussion, which will include panelists from public schools as well as universities, provides a follow-up to the Race to Nowhere symposium held at C.W. Post in December.  Prompted in part by the release of “Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother” (Amy Chua’s provocative memoir about her own family culture), we are now ready for our next conversation about approaches to educating and parenting in today’s world.  Please join us for this most worthwhile and timely discussion for change, which we want YOU, the audience, to be involved in along with us. 

RSVP by March 4 to Dr. Arnold Dodge, Chair, Department of Educational Leadership and Administration, Long Island University/C.W. Post Campus atarnold.dodge@liu.edu.  Those who attended the Race to Nowhere forum are encouraged to bring a guest (or two).  Please make sure to note the number of people attending in your email.
