Fort Smith’s Arkansas College of Osteopathic Medicine with two curious attachments, a so-called Traditional Community that has been named a HUMAN SETTLEMENT; AKA a WALKABLE COMMUNITY, followed by U.S. Dept. of Education’s Common Core STEM program.
Kyle D. Parker, JD, is President & CEO of the 3 proposed projects.
Referencing the Osteopathic Medical College, a couple of questions arise. Mr. Parker, in a press release, asserts the College is engaged in recruitment activities for the 2017 initial class. One would think that the college would be overwhelmed by academically qualified students and teaching professors for the fall classes. Or perhaps the recruitment Parker refers to is aimed principally at minorities & low-achievers replete with set-asides, affirmative action & quotas.
It is also notable that the college will be funded by private concerns, foundations, and various divisions of government. (That aside, why would private concerns give money to this nascent college?) The previously named 2 curious attachments should be of vital interest to “we the people” & transparency readily available.
Few specifics are known of the parent organizations—Arkansas Colleges of Health Education & the Fort Smith Regional Health Foundation…perhaps lobbyists? Are area citizens witnessing the formation of a regional healthcare consortium that eliminates city/county home rule? Does this smack of Obamacare?]
The “Walkable Community” that Mr. Parker describes as “Traditional” is anything but traditional. Before the description, let it be said that the aforementioned walkable community has the United Nation’s Agenda 21 stamp all over it. Parker continually uses “We, we, we”, spoken like a good government Planner which is the antithesis of our eroding free American society. A topical description by Mr. Parker allows that “houses are built very close to each other (Agenda 21 stack & pack), to have front porches so that neighbors get to know who the neighbors are, that the front porches are very close to sidewalks so that when somebody goes by the sidewalk, they say hello…how are you today”. Purpose? CEO Parker’s verbiage sounds as if he is addressing low-information sub-types. The question is obvious, why is the FSM Arkansas College of Osteopathic Medicine involved in the United Nation’s Agenda 21? Aka…Sustainable Development (SD).
Ivy Owen, CEO of Chaffee Crossing, bequeathed 200 taxpayer-owner acres to build a College of Osteopathic Medicine. Was Parker’s Walkable Community initially designated for a parcel of the 200 acres?
FSM is heavily embedded in Agenda 21 (2030) as are all American cities with populations over 50,000. There are city leaders and other government types today still denying the existence of the worldwide globalist Agenda 21. They are either lying or ignorant. One of Agenda 21’s premier goals is incrementally erasing the American election process. Search arkansasfreedom.net for Agenda 21 & Metro 1313. Search also www.americanpolicy.org for articles by Tom DeWeese, foremost expert on the subject.
Sidebar: The state of Alabama, compliments of the Alabama General Assembly recently passed a law removing Agenda 21 and all its tentacles from the state. A round of applause please, and thanks!
Back to STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) to be introduced into every preK-12 government school system, i.e. Fort Smith Public Schools, but, is that true? The STEM project involves dozens if not hundreds of new government programs & “scientists”. A scenario of epic unachievable proportions. Remember failure is what government thrives on…Failure = Funding…another government protection racket.
Within days of former F.S. Public School Superintendent Benny Gooden’s SECOND retirement, he was hired by the Osteopathic College to develop programs in the Arkansas public school system, specifically to introduce STEM into preK-12. This brings us to the real reason for the hire…fund raising & fraternization in the Ark. General Assembly & renewing contacts with Arkansas Superintendents.
As previously stated, Common Core, of which STEM is a major part, states’ ALL schools will improve STEM instruction in pre-school thru 12th grade…and serving groups “historically underrepresented in STEM fields”. How & why “underrepresented”?
The government is relying on U.S. Immigration & Custom Enforcement (ICE) to compile a list of STEM designated degrees. The list is intended to accommodate foreign students who are studying in the U.S. on a valid student visa…as well as illegals. ICE can’t protect our borders but has capitulated to throngs of legals & illegals arriving here for their education and other unearned largesse.
The STEM program is laudable but why are the public schools 20 years behind the times, e.g. ranked 18th in mathematics & 13th in science in the 15 year old high school category. Where were you Dr. Gooden and all the classroom teachers? Mountains of funding was certainly available throughout the decades. Recall Gooden was quoted in the Times Record, “we will take all we can get”, referring to illegal Mexicans & OTM’s.
Questions: STEM insiders state that engineers, chemists, technologists, & mathematicians will be secured to teach public education teachers. Why aren’t the teachers at the very least basically qualified to teach STEM subjects?
Scam #1…where are you going to find professional scientists willing to teach public school teachers & students? Teachers are devoid, in the main, of scientific building blocks, lack of concepts and even if Gooden & other government types were to locate those substantial numbers of scientific professionals to teach the teachers, how successful could they be? The professionals would be engaged in teaching to Tabula Rasa with no chance of success.
Scam #2…if professionals could be found to teach the teachers, who would test teachers to determine if they had absorbed the necessary scientific data fed to them?
Scam #3…in case all the aforementioned numbers reach fruition who then would test the children to determine if absorption of STEM took place?
What legal mechanism permits CEO Parker to take charge & direct these 3 disparate endeavors, particularly STEM. And upon what authority does Dr. Gooden have to march into the Ark. school system again and allegedly institute such a massive proposed program…particularly when he ran a failed system for 30+ years?
Now the lie I alluded to at the beginning: Schools must become “STEM designated” and that means access to significant financial resources and it also means all schools will not be served. Now we see the main reason for the triumvirate…it means access to significant financial resources—Follow the Money. Schools must adjust their curricula and teaching methodology in order to qualify and then must compete to win the STEM DESIGNATION.
Finally, what does an Osteopathic College have to do with a Walkable Community and in turn what does a Walkable Community have to do with STEM. How are these logically related and who benefits?
