NEA Convention Opens With Constitution Debate
Atlantic City hosts the 110th NEA annual meeting as Donald E. Morrison of San Diego signals likely passage of a controversial constitutional overhaul. The plan would cut the board to 30, change staff status, extend the president's term, and require state ratification. A key issue is NEA affiliates merging with other teacher groups, notably the American Federation of Teachers, with a federation policy approved but afoul of AFL CIO affiliation. Morrison warns of heated debate and says unity should span all levels.
