More poignant than the content (albeit important) is the author of the letter 
to the editor today.

Don't follow the D.C. schools model 



I do not seek to enter into the debate over Rochester Mayor Robert Duffy's 
effort to take over Rochester public schools. However, the Rochester Area 
Colleges, a consortium of Rochester public and private universities, colleges 
and community colleges, which supports the mayoral takeover, has used the 
mayoral takeover of Washington , D.C. , public schools as a model of success. 
This is where I must speak out. Mayoral takeover of Washington , D.C. , public 
schools has not proven to be highly successful. This group of presidents and 
others who support Mayor Duffy's plan do a great disservice to the people of 
Rochester if the Washington , D.C. , model is used. 



— ROBERT VINSON BRANNUM 
WASHINGTON , D.C. 
The writer is president of the D.C. Federation of Civic Associations Inc.
