	Author Chris Mercogliano,'72, Speaks in DC on Saturday, October 27
	Thanks for checking back. I'm in the class of 72 and it turns out that I'm going to be giving a talk and signing my latest book at Politics and Prose in DC on Saturday, Oct 27 at 1 p.m. As co-director of the Albany Free School, Chris Mercogliano has had remarkable success in helping a diverse array of youngsters find their way in the world.

Most kids today, he says, are over-supervised, over-managed, over-scheduled, and over-saturated with electronic media. Indeed, claims Mercogliano, so much of their experience is controlled from without, and so little relies on their own inner resources anymore, that childhood itself has become "domesticated."
