Beverly Perdue is not the only one touting her experience as a teacher.
At a debate before the N.C. School Boards Association this morning, Republican gubernatorial candidate Bill Graham noted that he once taught at a community college.
"I loved my time as a teacher, and I was accepted with open arms by the community college system, and my students benefited, I hope, in some great way," he said.
He argued that state schools need to be more open to "lateral movement" of people from other industries into teaching.
A spokesman said Graham taught business management, business law and business math at Rowan-Cabarrus Community College in the mid '90s.
