Abstract
SUMMARYA discussion of Section 254 of the Telecommunications Act of 1996 is presented as well as a call for a more definitive policy on universal service. The author also parallels the struggle for equal access to information technologies and the struggle for equal educational opportunities. The author further contends that public school desegration policies failed-40 years after Brown, the nation's schools are unequal and more segregated than they were before Brown-bccmise the federal government delegated its responsibility to the states. The author warns that if regulation and enforcement of a universal service policy are left up to the states, then it is subject to the same fate as public school desegration policies.
