Abstract	A collection of ten essays related to education from the personal experiences and perspective of the author is presented. The first essay, "A Fighting Chance," discusses the environment for educational reform in the 1970's. In the "Story of a Lake" the author describes the environment of his home and its interrelation with the surrounding physical environment. "The Great American Cop-Out" examines the anti-busing movement in the North. "Environment Versus Technology" analyzes the controversy over the use of strip mined coal by the Tennessee Valley Authority. "The Second Coming of the One-Room Schoolhouse" explores the trend away from the large educational complexes to mini-schools, alternative schools, and street academics. "Horace Mann's Only Appearance On TV" is a satirical look at public education in the future. "Writing for Educational Publications" offers tips for submitting manuscripts to academic publications. In "Anyone For International Work?" the author provides suggestions for obtaining educational related employment while abroad. The last three articles provide observations on education in Mexico, American Samoa, and Calcutta, India. (Author/DE)
