My mother was murdered by my step-father, my brother's father, who was also named Joel, twenty-five years ago.

First, this law - the National Defense Education Act - ended years and years of debate about one controversial question: 'Shall the Federal Government, with all its massive resources, get directly involved in aiding American education?'
