(excerpt from the Acknowledgements)This book of essays is the result of the work of many hands and the sweat of many brows. The effort was begun in 1973 by the Teacher Corps, then under the direction of Dr. Louise White. Dr. White's decision to sponsor the first Native American Teacher Corps Conference reflected programmatic commitment to Indian education; without such commitment, this book could not have come about.

Common Sense About Uncommon Knowledge: The Knowledge Bases for Diversity

G. Pritchy Smith

The education deans who contribute to this book describe their methods for dispelling some of the persistent myths they confront about teacher education from the general public as well as their academic peers and executives. Underscoring the powerful message of each essay is the belief that to prevent these myths from developing and to dispel them, deans of schools and colleges of education must make significant, ongoing connections with schools and the public to better understand and address public perceptions and misconceptions.
