Film Description
Students address the implications of the New York State Regents examinations on their lives. Issues such as censorship on the Regents, testing biases, and cheating are addressed. The goal is to inform other students, teachers and parents of the often unspoken truths about the Regents, and the truth about how youth, media makers and teachers feel. Because of the changing policies under the new Department of Education in New York City, students felt that they needed to speak out in order to make a difference in the midst of current shifts in policy.
