Here is a great article on the value of chess in schools, sent to us by Mr. James Carlovsky of Martin Luther College. He is still looking out for our club!
Here's my favorite quote from one of the chess instructors in the article: "I want (my students) to be the most creative person at the table in the corporation. I want them to be the person who, when others say there is no solution here, they say, 'Oh, there are lots of solutions.’ ”
