They were the pink slips that helped change American liberalism.

Philanthropy and School Reform
|
|
Greg Anrig, Jr.,
The Century Foundation,

|
|
The most notable aspect of the Sunday Times Magazine’s roundtable on the “new world of educational philanthropy,” which was intended to promote outside-the-box thinking on school reform, was how the entire discussion was locked in the tired old box of trying to make “separate but equal” a workable reality.

|
|
One important aim of social science research is to provide unbiased information that can help guide public policies. However, social science is often construed as politics by other means. Nowhere is the polarized nature of social science research more visible than in the heated debate over charter schools. In Spin Cycle, noted political scientist and education expert Jeffrey Henig explores how controversies over the charter school movement illustrate the use and misuse of research in policy debates.

|
Richard D. Kahlenberg,
The Century Foundation,

|
|
The world of education suffered two major set backs in 2007—the adoption of a radical private school vouchers program by the Utah state legislature, and a decision by the U.S. Supreme Court to strike down voluntary racial integration plans in Louisville and Seattle—but the good news is that both have been met with powerful responses.
