““Ruth Stanislaus, principal of P.S. 971 in Sunset Park, whose student population is now a little over half Chinese, was taken aback when one mother of a kindergartner—a five-year-old, mind you—announced in faltering English: “My son must go Harvard.” If, as sometimes appears to be the case, “Harvard” is the first English word learned by immigrant Chinese mothers, the second word is probably “Stuyvesant.” Remember””
