Some might balk at the lack of pedagogy training and psychology in this part of the plan, but they can be reminded that these are academic students and there is clear evidence in the few but notable examples of academic schools across the country that pedagogy and psychology are not the pressing and complex problems in schools such as these as they are in the typical public school.

For example, a person can get a degree in psychology from the psychology dept of the School of Arts and Sciences, or he could get something like an educational psychology degree from the dept of educational psychology in the School of Education.
