Governance and Leadership
- Presumptive socialist mayor Janeese Lewis George could cater to unions itching to end teacher merit pay in the District. President Trump would welcome a fight to stop her.
- FAFSA reform was Senator Lamar Alexander’s final legislative bow. ED did as little as possible to honor it, then everything it could to save it.
- A generation ago, state leaders collaborated to fix a K–12 nation at risk. Universities today need the same gubernatorial guidance.
- Education leaders reveal a clear double standard by insisting students should be in school while making little effort to keep schools open
- Changes to ED, the reckoning in higher ed, and classroom learning deficits draw readers’ interest
