Cathie Black gaffes rile parents concerned about overcrowding

Now that's Black humor.

Less than two weeks into her new gig, Schools Chancellor Cathie Black has riled parents and public officials by jokingly suggesting that 'birth control' was the solution to school overcrowding.

The off-color quip came in response to concerns by public-school dad Eric Greenleaf, who said at a meeting of parents and officials at state Assembly Speaker Sheldon Silver's downtown office that there will be 'huge shortages' of classroom space in lower Manhattan in coming years.

'Could we just have some birth control for a while?' Black cracked. 'It could really help us all out a lot.' - NYPOST.com
