Randall said the public schools of Nebraska and the nation need to be restructured In order to meet the demands of a rapidly changing society. "Education isn't bad, it just needs to be reformed," she said. "I think we've had an excellent education system, particularly inthe Elidwest," she said.

Reports on the state of education in Nebraska and v the United States show the need for such change, she said. The recently released report of the Nebraska Gov ernor's Task Force on'- Excellence in x Education recommended that students do more homework assignments. Randall said she agreed with the recommendation. .
