‘62 was my freshman year in high school.

I went to an exclusive and highly competitive parochial school and had many classmates who ended up on business, industry, finance and (unfortunately) politics.

A common theme at all of our later reunions is the perception that the education we received is now available *nowhere* in the US. There is universal dismay at what our children and (now) their children are being taught - and moreover what they are not being taught.

It’s gone. The whole system is broken at its core.
