David Day:  

Life Since graduation I went to technical school for three years. I have worked in the field of electronic engineering ever since graduation in from technical school. I have work for the General Motors Research and Development Center since 1983. In 1994 I completed my Bachelor of Applied Science degree in Electronic Engineering. I have my own company called Gnome Electronics. I still live where I have always lived. For more information visit me at my web site. My interest is in robotics and Artificial Intelligence. I am presently writing a non-verbal programming language. Recently I have begun to design and make sterling silver jewelry and work in film and digital photography. School School was very rough for me. My first grade teacher played psychologist with our class and tagged many in our class as un-teachable. For the rest of my time in the Roseville Community Schools I could never keep my grades up. I technical school and college I did quite well. I finished my Bachelors degree in 1994 with a 4.102 GPA. After I graduated from high school I discovered that our school district was getting large amounts of money from the federal government for teaching children with learning difficulties from the various, “Title,” programs. I often wondered why I understood science and technology and had trouble in basic math classes. After taking printed papers to my professors in my technology school it was discovered that most of what I had been taught was nonsensical. We reviewed my geometry work and nearly every given only worked in the example and nowhere else. This ensured that the students could not learn anything. As for the social aspects of my school day they were even worse that the academic part. I had a neighbor that needed our home and recruited vast numbers of students to harass me while in school. Even our principal was involved when our armed security guards took his daughter home after a vandalism incident at our home. He used his authority to persuade me to tell him which officers brought his girl home. He sent several days trying to persuade the Roseville Police to turn over any incident reports to him. I explained who the officers were and began torturing me on a daily basis for the rest of time I was in his school. He then proceeded to try to destroy me with my technical school. The president of this school brought me in and played a recorded meeting his had with this man. My brother and my mother also had problems while at this school. My mother lost her job because of all of this. He eventually moved up to the school board. While there he successfully delayed the introduction of computer technology for many years. He claimed that studies are best done on individual (hand held) slate boards. In 1970 I had enrolled and been accepted to Macomb College in the computer science program. On day I was called into mi...Expand for more
