After causing a stir among Gettysburg College students Tuesday, Bill Ayers offered an apology.

But, he pointed out, it was the same stir that drew the crowd of more than 100 who came to listen to him speak about education reform. And that, he said, is important.

"We should be able to have a dialogue and speak with the possibility of being heard and listen with the possibility of being changed," Ayers said.

"There is no one like Bill Ayers," said Kaoru Miyazawa, assistant professor of education at Gettysburg College. "He believes teaching is a moral and political action. He asks, 'what should I do in this class with what I know?' He teaches to make the world a better place."
