For Who? For WHO?

Grammar takes a break in Montgomery County, Letter to the Editor, Washington Post, Wednesday, August 31, 2011

Regarding the Aug. 28 Metro article “A page out of Disney’s book: Montgomery County schools apply company’s training methods to motivate employees”:

“ ‘A high-quality education is a fundamental right for who?’ asked a high-energy facilitator. ‘Every child,’ came the muffled response. ‘For WHO?’ the call came again. ‘Every child,’ the group said, a little louder. ‘That’s right,’ the facilitator said. ‘Every child.’ ”

Sigh. I guess a high-quality education in grammar isn’t a fundamental right for every facilitator.
