Friday Snippets: 9/26/2008 - Interesting Times

ADVERTISEMENTS
We are sure living in some interesting times, no? Everyday lately we get word of news that would have consumed months of newscycles. Last night hearing that Washington Mutual failed ... I didn't even blink - this is old hat by now. What are we going to do next year when all this settles down again? 

Boy, this Chicago thing just gets more interesting all the time. Now, Rep. Meeks, the boycott leader is threatening to have 6,000 protesters outside Wrigley Field for the first MLB playoff game. 

Georgia's school funding suits take an odd new turn. The Governor has asked for an inquiry of whether districts may use taxpayer dollars to fund these lawsuits. 

Why the N.J. Supreme Court should not be administering their school funding system. 


An Indiana AG candidate proposes including school related (but not employed) personnel (like bus drivers) in child protection laws. 

Can't be both a teacher and on the school board at the same time in Nevada. 

Illinois loses $221,000 in lost governmental contributions for every dropout. And they have a lot of them, according to a new study.

More evidence on why Supp. Educ. Services are not working like they thought they would. 

A FOIA case for a college administrator. 

Health Insurance costs are a problem in Arkansas. 

This was odd. Vetting, anyone? 

Around the Ed. Law Blogosphere:

A new ed. law blog to report this week: Developments in Special Education Law. H. Jeffrey Marcus has been posting for a while, but I just came across him now. He seems good at providing briefs on special education cases that come down. I added him to my blogroll. If you know of other ed. law blogs I don't have in my blogroll, please let me know. 


Erin Buzuvis has a good post on ending the Title IX Blame Game. 

Mitchell R. points out a good resource for folks interested in getting a law school job: Legal Scholarship Blog. Here is a link from the Legal Scholarship Blog (RSS) of Law School Based Legal Conferences in Education Law. 

Mitchell also pointed out this revealing clip of Greta can Susteren talking about law school grading. 

Connecticut Ed. Law Blog has a case on cross-examining witnesses at sch. disciplinary hearings. 

Pamela Parker has guidelines on class sizes in Texas. 

The Integration Report is back after a couple month hiatus. 

Friday Fun: Apparently, its a bad idea to lie to David Letterman - especially when he finds out in the middle of the show. I love Keith Olberman's face during this whole thing. Like I said, we live in interesting times lately.
