Secretary Richard Riley was named one of the "Top Ten Cabinet
Members of All Time" by Time magazine. Executive
Director of the Riley Institute, Don Gordon, says "Almost
every time we have a Riley Institute program somewhere in the
state, someone mentions that Secretary Riley is a wonderful, unselfish
leader, and the best and most effective South Carolina Governor
we've ever had. It really is no surprise that the same sentiment
is shared at the national level about Secretary Riley's service
as US Secretary of Education."
