Hey, why not just look it up in Wikipedia? Check it out:

In July of 2003 during her term as education commissioner, Yecke proposed Minnesota Science Standards that included intelligent design in science curriculum. She cited the pro-intelligent design Santorum Amendment as supporting her effort.[2] The versions of the Minnesota Science Standards circulated by Yecke contained language used by the pro-intelligent design Teach The Controversy campaign which casts doubt on evolution while offering intelligent design as a competing theory.[3] The version that was circulated among the public did not include these revisions. Critics have deemed this move as a dishonest attempt to misinform the public in order to sway the committee decision in favor of Intelligent Design using public opinion.

Thanks to the tireless efforts of W. Rl Elsberry of Austringer, here are some other sources of information about this Yecke affair:

• Austringer continues to update this post
• Florida Citizens for Science: Yecke Information Challenged
• The Gradebook: Yecke, evolution, schools and blogs
• Realitybasedcommunity.net: Repudiation Defender
• Red State Rabble: Rewriting History
• Threads from Henry’s Web: Information from Minnesota Newspaper on Cheri Yecke Challenged

I saw this coming and I warned them (Yech, Yecke), but they did not listen! Why do the people of Florida never listen to me!?!?

By the way, have you read Cheri’s book “The Ware Against Excellence”? You can read this review of it by Jonathan Butcher, on the Heritage Foundation Site. Just click here. (yea, right, like I’m going to link to the Heritage Foundation unless I need to…). Oh, and her dissertation. It’s on the lack of correlation between money spent on education and student performence.
