Are they names of authorities or so?
Hello,
Please help me with these in red:
Dorothy Joseph, one of the school principals who implemented the "heart-brain" model of IntelliLearn® in Brooklyn, New York under support of the Honorable Regent Adelaide Sanford and the New York State Black and Puerto Rican Legislative Caucus, published her successes in her award winning book, A tale of Two Systems.
I'm having a problem again, I don't know whether to translate or transliterate it. If they are names of authourites then I'll have to transliterate it like the civil defence department and so on.
What are they?
Thank you so much,
( I really love this forum
)

" "Regent" is a title not used very commonly in the US, although it does show up in education system for the state of New York. The entire caucus is " New York State Black and Puerto Rican Legislative Caucus ," so don't try to break it up. A caucus is, roughly, a group of people who have a common interest.

- In this case, they are Black and Puerto Rican and probably care a lot about issues that affect minorities, immigration, etc.

Hi Darene,
Apparently "the Honorable Regent" is a title, like "Town Councilman" or "School Board President." "Regent" is a title not used very commonly in the US, although it does show up in education system for the state of New York.
The entire caucus is "New York State Black and Puerto Rican Legisla
