He probably has some familairity with the products of our schools and the difficulties teachers face in bucking the system to actually try to teach them anything.

I also teach college, and I can read the educational system through the system's productss.

I also ran a home daycare for 18 years, while still teaching college, and I worked as a sub in our local elementary schools, also while still teaching college, so I might have a broader view than he, but I assure you, we at the university level are not blind to what goes on in public schools or to the way teachers are blocked at every turn when they try to teach their students.
