We mustn't lose sight of our gray shades

Excellent opinion piece in my local paper........

"One of my goals during years of teaching history and government was leading young people to recognize the existence and power of gray. I eschewed the use of multiple-choice questions in my classes because I felt these questions punished deep thinkers. I wanted my students to be able to see how multiple answers might be correct. Few if any have died of an open mind, while open-mindedness may very well be a lifesaver."
