Mr. Fred Rogers
Senate Statement on PBS Funding
delivered 1 May 1969
[AUTHENTICITY CERTIFIED: Text version below transcribed directly from audio]
Senator Pastore: Alright Rogers, you’ve got the floor.
Mr. Rogers: Senator Pastore, this is a philosophical statement and would take about ten
minutes to read, so I’ll not do that. One of the first things that a child learns in a healthy
family is trust, and I trust what you have said that you will read this. It’s very important to
me. I care deeply about children.
Senator Pastore: Will it make you happy if you read it?
Mr. Rogers: I’d just like to talk about it, if it’s alright. My first children’s program was on
WQED fifteen years ago, and its budget was $30. Now, with the help of the Sears-Roebuck
Foundation and National Educational Television, as well as all of the affiliated stations — each
station pays to show our program. It’s a unique kind of funding in educational television. With
this help, now our program has a budget of $6000. It may sound like quite a difference, but
$6000 pays for less than two minutes of cartoons.

Two minutes of animated, what I sometimes say, bombardment. I’m very much concerned, as
I know you are, about what’s being delivered to our children in this country. And I’ve worked
in the field of child development for six years now, trying to understand the inner needs of
children. We deal with such things as — as the inner drama of childhood. We don’t have to
bop somebody over the head to…make drama on the screen. We deal with such things as
getting a haircut, or the feelings about brothers and sisters, and the kind of anger that arises
in simple family situations. And we speak to it constructively.
Senator Pastore: How long of a program is it?
Mr. Rogers: It’s a half hour every day. Most channels schedule it in the noontime as well as
in the evening. WETA here has scheduled it in the late afternoon.
Senator Pastore: Could we get a copy of this so that we can see it? Maybe not today, but I’d
like to see the program.
Mr. Rogers: I’d like very much for you to see it.
Senator Pastore: I’d like to see the program itself, or any one of them.
Mr. Rogers: We made a hundred programs for EEN, the Eastern Educational Network, and
then when the money ran out, people in Boston and Pittsburgh and Chicago all came to the
fore and said we’ve got to have more of this neighborhood expression of care. And this is what
— This is what I give. I give an expression of care every day to each child, to help him realize
that he is unique. I end the program by saying, “You’ve made this day a special day, by just
your being you. There’s no person in the whole world like you, and I like you, just the way
you are.” And I feel that if we in public television can only make it clear that feelings are
mentionable and manageable, we will have done a great service for mental health. I think that
it’s much more dramatic that two men could be working out their feelings of anger — much
more dramatic than showing something of gunfire. I’m constantly concerned about what our
children are seeing, and for 15 years I have tried in this country and Canada, to present what
I feel is a meaningful expression of care.
Senator Pastore: Do you narrate it?

Mr. Rogers: I’m the host, yes. And I do all the puppets and I write all the music, and I write
all the scripts —
Senator Pastore: Well, I’m supposed to be a pretty tough guy, and this is the first time I’ve
had goose bumps for the last two days.
Mr. Rogers: Well, I’m grateful, not only for your goose bumps, but for your interest in — in
our kind of communication. Could I tell you the words of one of the songs, which I feel is very
important?
Senator Pastore: Yes.
Mr. Rogers: This has to do with that good feeling of control which I feel that children need to
know is there. And it starts out, “What do you do with the mad that you feel?” And that first
line came straight from a child. I work with children doing puppets in — in very personal
communication with small groups:
What do you do with the mad that you feel? When you feel so mad you could bite.
When the whole wide world seems oh so wrong, and nothing you do seems very right.
What do you do? Do you punch a bag? Do you pound some clay or some dough? Do
you round up friends for a game of tag or see how fast you go? It’s great to be able to
stop when you’ve planned a thing that’s wrong. And be able to do something else
instead, and think this song —
‘I can stop when I want to. Can stop when I wish. Can stop, stop, stop
anytime….And what a good feeling to feel like this! And know that the feeling is
really mine. Know that there’s something deep inside that helps us become
what we can. For a girl can be someday a lady, and a boy can be someday a
man.’
Senator Pastore: I think it’s wonderful. I think it’s wonderful. Looks like you just earned the
20 million dollars.
We are looking at images of rule and power in the civilizations of the Roman Empire and the Byzantine Empire.Please talk about 2 different objects (eg. sculptures, mosaics etc.) that demonstrate a narrative of power about 2 different powerful rulers – one from Rome, and one from the Byzantine Empire, and consider the following question: how do we know, as the viewer, that the person in the object is indeed a powerful ruler? What cues are we given?

Rough draft | HSA 300 – Health Services Organization Management | Strayer University
In a one-page Word document, summarize each of the issues faced by the hospitals detailed in the interactive scenario.
you will assume the role of a member of a management team evaluating the IT infrastructure in place at the recently acquired rural hospitals. Specifically focusing on health informatics technology, you will interview various department heads and other users at two hospitals in order to identify issues and concerns around performance, workflow, technology, and lifespan. The goal is to ensure the two hospitals have the health informatics infrastructure to meet the strategic goals of the organization as it grows.
Vila Health leadership wants to be sure that the IT infrastructure at each of the newly acquired rural hospitals is sufficient to support the strategic goals of the organization as it grows. Health Information managers have been tasked with determining how to assess performance, workflow, technology, and lifespan of the existing systems, along with identifying any issues, bugs, or concerns about the various components that make up the Health Information systems at the target hospitals. This information will be used to create and implement a plan for evaluating the current situation.
The idea is to describe how you will analyze performance what the measures are and how you might go about getting data around those measures.

Initiate your own feedforward experience with your peers and practice providing specific recommendations based on their feedforward requests.
If delivered effectively, feedback centers on specific recommendations for future improvement and growth. If delivered ineffectively, it focuses only on what was done wrong, with no specific path provided toward a better outcome. Goldsmith (2002) provides an alternative approach labeled feedforward. It shares a future orientation with effective feedback but differs from feedback in that the coachee identifies the areas for improvement and asks for ideas from others about how to change the behavior.In this Discussion, you will initiate your own feedforward experience with your peers and practice providing specific recommendations based on their feedforward requests.RESOURCESBe sure to review the Learning Resources before completing this activity.

WEEKLY RESOURCESTo prepare for this Discussion:Reflect upon your own professional life, in particular, how you relate to and/or manage others in professional contexts.Identify one or more behaviors you would want to improve as you work with and manage others.In preparation for responding to your colleagues, consider how feedforward can help you and others improve their management practices.BY DAY 3Post a description of one behavior in your professional life that significantly impacts how you manage or relate to others and that you would like to change.
