At Colorado's largest online school, GOAL Academy, only a fraction of students logged on consistently, according to an investigation by Education Week. Now the school's founder is involved with the opening of two new online schools. Then, a father of modern radical Islamism lived in Northern Colorado briefly in 1949. He later went home to Egypt and authored writings popular with today's jihadists. Also, Colorado State University-Pueblo recently launched the country's first center for cannabis research. And on the 75th anniversary of the attack on Pearl Harbor, we hear from a survivor who was on the USS Arizona that day. Islam cannot fulfill its role, except by taking concrete role in a society, rather in a nation. Later... what's billed as the country's FIRST cannabis research center... opens at Colorado State University - Pueblo. Then... it's the 75th anniversary of the attack on Pearl Harbor. We hear from a Colorado survivor --nearly burned alive in the depths of the sinking USS Arizona... "We were no escape there from down the hatch, and down the ladder, since everything was so hot, and I tried to close the hatch and got burned pretty bad."
