(Thursday, October 29, 2009) I have been asked by members of the media in the past few days whether I am going to withdraw my support of Cynthia Elliot in her re-election bid for the Rochester City School Board due to her use of profane language at a recent school board meeting. The answer is “no.” I stand by my endorsement of Cynthia. That being said, I do not condone the use of such language – either publically or privately. That sort of language has no place in public discourse, much less at a meeting of educators. I reject such vulgarity and have said so to Cynthia.
