Perhaps it is odd to consider equal access, equal presentation and
equal recognition forms of non-special treatment and non-subsidy. It
does not seem odd to me.
I advocate a kind of democratic mechanism, by which students are given
a broader range of languages from which to choose. The experience
described earlier (by Mr. Fagot?) of two languages being offered, with
the brightest being shepherded into one of them, leaving the rest "free
to choose" the other-- this is alltoo common and unforgivable. 
Is it unreasonable to suggest that more variety of subjects be offered?

Miko.
