Mr. Eric Wisotsky hosted to his AP U.S. History class Stuy parents and author, Nigel Lake & Cassandra Kelly on January 8! Mr. Lake provided free copies in advance to APUSH students of The Long Term Starts Now. Students engaged in a presentation and discussion about the problem:
Corporate, financial and government decision-making has become increasingly short-term. This is not simply the result of reporting seasons, remuneration schemes or political cycles.

Much thanks to Mr. Lake and Ms. Kelly for these thought-provoking classes! Read more here.
