Tiffany Schley won the sympathy of most New Yorkers when officials at the High School of Legal Studies in Bushwick overreacted to her withering Graduation Day criticism of the school and refused to give her a diploma. Mayor Bloomberg rightly called it a "bonehead thing to do."
Finding themselves in an unwelcome media spotlight, the educrats quickly retreated and agreed to give the straight-A student and class valedictorian her certificate.
But Tiffany, who's headed to Smith College on a full scholarship, is undoing much of the good will she's accumulated.
She and her mother apparently aren't content with the diploma she earned.
Flanked by always-incendiary City Councilman Charles Barron and two dozen supporters Monday, they demanded that Chancellor Joel Klein hand over the certificate personally — and that he do it at a public ceremony to be held at the predictably inflammatory Rev. Herbert Daughtry's Brooklyn church.

Did that jerkoff actually get the guts to slap a white man yet, or is that joker a typical all talk and no action chicken@#$&.
I would too....3rd class mail.
In the picture she looks like she is crying. Why is she crying, for crying out loud? She should be happy. And look who's hugging her. They should both be happy. What was her beef, anyway?
Do you mean Blair Hornstine? She was from Jersey, not NYC. And the best part about her story was that she was caught plagiarizing some columns for her hometown paper, and Harvard rescinded her admission. I've never heard where she ended up attending college.
Yup, her.

D'oh!

SCHADENFREUDE!
Is THIS what has NYC in a tizzy these days!!?!!!??!
It's official. 9/11 is now *history*. you may now resume your regularly scheduled viewing, in progress.
Valedictorian in an inner-city, NYC public school?
That's probably equal to a suburban, Virginia 4th grade education.
I can only imagine the reaction of the Smith College faculty when she "axes dem if dey've got a problem wif dat?"
(Slowly donning asbestos suit......)
Charles Barron didn't slap me, but he was awfully rude to me on the telephone. Three grand could have gotten him a damn good self-help book, but what the hey, his loss.
I dig the fabu Kim Il Sung get-up. Trying to evoke the magical image of Kwame Nkrumah inside very own little Brooklyn fiefdom. Though, in the end, he just looks as twisted and weird as the squirrels on the treadmill that passes for his brain.
LOL! Thanks, I think...
I would have just ignored her rant. The school does suck and nothing is going to be done about it.
Of course he hasn't done it!
Gosh, who would have thought she'd be an unsatisfiable malcontent?
Did you feel dirty and disgusting after talking with him on the phone?
I didn't -- until she hooked up with those 2 race pimps.
I said, "Yeah, whatever," and hung up on the SOB. Wish I could find his goofy-ass business card. It's hilarious.
Wonder if they fixed the broken windows in that semi-abandoned dump Herb bases his scam in. It's on Atlantic, I believe.
Mao started it, but Kwame (President of Ghana, big hero to every pan-Africanist that ever wanted to slap a white man) brought it to the geto.
If you find it, scan and post it!

How on *earth* do you know all this???
Again, how do you know all this???
Exactly.
