New article examining enrollment in two-way dual language immersion programs in LAUSD. These programs are often located near students who benefit most from DLI. But (in article freely available through end of next month)... (1/2)

Grateful for this coverage of recent early childhood research from Center for Education and Civil Rights. With amazing recent grads Rohitha Edara & Karen Babbs Hollett.

New research from Penn State finds early childhood classrooms across the U.S. remain highly segregated—over 25% are 90%+ one race or ethnicity. These patterns shape opportunity from the start and call for equity-driven policy change. bit.ly/4hbLbH1

As @dartmouthartsci.bsky.social alum, very glad to see this. Many of the things this compact seeks to change would have lessened my college experience. Important moment for higher Ed.

Jeff Sharlet @jeffsharlet.bsky.social · 12d

It appears that my employer, Dartmouth, one of the Trump 9, has said no to the compact. All the better given that our president is cited within it. But she’s saying no. Count the small victories when they come.

Office of the President
Dear Dartmouth community,

As many of you know, Dartmouth was one of nine universities asked by the White House to give feedback by Oct. 20 on a draft of its “Compact for Academic Excellence in Higher Education.”

I am deeply committed to Dartmouth’s academic mission and values and will always defend our fierce independence.

You have often heard me say that higher education is not perfect and that we can do better. At the same time, we will never compromise our academic freedom and our ability to govern ourselves.

Best,
Sian Leah Beilock
President

So disappointed by this decision to wind down our local NPR station due to fed & univ cuts. I joined several NPR programs over my years here to talk about my research.

I’m also frustrated for our community & as a parent who has a kid who adores listening to/ learning from NPR when he’s in the car.

WPSU in Pennsylvania becomes the first public media outlet to shut down as a result of the rescission of federal funding.

WPSU TV and radio serves one of the largest geographic coverage areas in the nation, stretching across 24 counties of central Pennsylvania.

Penn State to shutter WPSU, board declines transfer to WHYY

In voting down a proposal to transfer the station to WHYY, trustees expressed concern over a $17 million subsidy and wanted a commitment to hire staff.

And if you want to see the local impact of proposed federal funding cuts for local districts, one of the tools I like is from EPI. The district I grew up in (Mobile, Alabama) gets 24% of its education funding from the federal govt. It may lose funding for 600+ teachers.
