Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Role of a Lifetime is the story of the crucial role Larry Farmer played on teams that won three NCAA titles for UCLA under Coach John Wooden. Farmer’s record at UCLA was 89–1, the greatest winning percentage in NCAA history. (Kareem Abdul-Jabbar was 88–2.) Role of a Lifetime also details how Farmer, a self-taught player from the playgrounds of Denver, managed to secure a full scholarship, make the varsity team as a sophomore, and ultimately become the head basketball coach at UCLA at the age of 30—the first black head coach for any sport at UCLA. The book chronicles the reactions of black leaders to his role as the first black head coach, as well as the inside politics that led him to resign after three years as coach, just days after accepting a two-year extension. Farmer also shares new insights about UCLA athletic booster Sam Gilbert and his role in the team’s NCAA probation. Farmer’s insider perspective during UCLA basketball’s most fabled period, combined with his natural ability to relate entertaining and informative anecdotes about legendary figures such as John Wooden, Bill Walton, Jamaal Wilkes, Reggie Miller, and many other famous players and coaches from throughout the world of college basketball, makes Role of a Lifetime a must-have for all Bruin fans and fans of basketball everywhere!

Download or read book The Great Expectations School written by Dan Brown and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2011-09-01 with total page 339 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the age of twenty-two, Dan Brown came to P.S. 85 as an eager, fresh-faced teacher. He was even as-signed his own class: 4-217. Unbeknownst to him, 4-217 was the designated “dumping ground” for all fourth-grade problem cases, and his students would prove to be more challenging than he could have ever anticipated. Intent on being a caring, dedicated teacher but confronted with unruly children, absent parents, and a failing administration, Dan was pushed to the limit time and again: he found himself screaming with rage, punching his fist through a blackboard out of sheer frustration, often just wanting to give up and walk away. Yet, in this seeming chaos, he slowly learned—from the more seasoned teachers at the school and from his own mistakes—how to discipline, teach, and make a difference. The Great Expectations School is the touching story of Class 4-217 and their teacher, Mr. Brown. But more than that, it is the revealing story of a broken educational system and all those struggling within and fighting against it.

Download or read book City of Hope City of Rage written by Seth A. Weitz and published by University of Alabama Press. This book was released on 2024 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In 'City of Hope, City of Rage: Miami, 1968-1994,' Seth A. Weitz examines the transformative period when the young city-founded under Jim Crow in 1896 and searching for an identity after the upheavals of the 1950s and 60s-began to strive for maturity. Tracing three turbulent decades marked by mass immigration, racially motivated uprisings, economic inequity, rising crime, and social change, 'City of Hope, City of Rage' tells the story of Miami's evolution from a predominantly white southern city and vacation community into what is now a global, predominantly Hispanic metropolis with an international tourist base-one which nevertheless remains one of the most segregated cities in the United States. Drawing on numerous primary sources, including one-on-one interviews with people who lived the history, Weitz assembles a kaleidoscopic portrait of his hometown's coming of age, returning again and again to the question of how Miami is defined, who gets to define it, and, by extension, the parameters of civic identity and belonging in an increasingly cosmopolitan network of communities"
