Column: Working Together Works |

It seems like only yesterday that our Valley was preparing for “Netday.” It was 1996 and Sun Microsystems, Cisco, Apple and many other leading companies planned, in barn raising fashion, to wire schools. If the internet could educate, it should surely be in classrooms!
John Gage of Sun was the project’s Chief Evangelist and before long, employees, vendors and educators were at work filling up rosters of volunteers at school sites. Cable was donated and engineers consulted. Enthusiasm and resources quickly spread across the country.
On the assigned day, then-Vice President Al Gore pulled wires at a high school in Contra Costa County and nearly half the Clinton Cabinet were engaged – several in California. Mayors, legislators, local officials – including many school board members joined in. |
