NASA Administrator Leads Action Session of President’s Council on Jobs and Competitiveness, NASA
President’s Council on Jobs and Competitiveness and NASA Administrator to Hold Listening and Action Session Highlighting the Importance of Science Education, White House
“On Friday, February 3rd, the President’s Council on Jobs and Competitiveness will hold a Listening and Action Session in Seattle, WA. The Jobs Council, in partnership with NASA Administrator Charles Bolden, will discuss ways businesses and organizations like NASA can enhance educational opportunities in science, technology, engineering and mathematics beyond the classroom to develop a competitive and innovative workforce.”
Keith’s note: White House and NASA PAO announce this less than 24 hours in advance. There will be no webcast so that we can hear what everyone says. NASA PAO will then they take a week or more to post Bolden’s prepared remarks. No one will ever know what was discussed in any great detail. Another dog and pony show.Why NASA continues to hide Bolden’s presence at things like this until the last minute and then beam him down isbaffling. This is an important topic. It deserves more than a last minute media advisory — and webcasting it does not require rocket science or loads of money.

    It’s all part of the “transparency” thing that came along with our Hope and Change.
