There are some articles that everyone should read, and David Kahn's OpEd piece,How Low Can We Go?, from the Wall Street Journal, is one of them.
His most telling point?
"Students who read widely and often throughout their elementary and high-school years develop the kinds of reading skills measured by the new SAT. Students who avoid reading don't--and can't develop them in a cram course."
He's right, you know. So chuck the remote, and make a trip to your bookshelves or the library. It's what your mind needs now!
