Determination, and discipline, and hardwork, Escalante had plenty of. And success aplenty at giving smart kids a feel for how to do things right. But he failed miserably, at slaying the dragons of our miseducational system. They slew him. Another one of those little vignettes of the Last Days of the Republic. RIP
