		<description><![CDATA[It seems some government officials can&#8217;t take &#8220;no&#8221; for an answer. Several school districts in the Cincinnati area are seeking voter approval to raise taxes after being rebuffed in the recent past. Two districts&#8217; pleas have been rejected three times, another district&#8217;s requests have been voted down twice.
As in the past, school district officials say [...]]]></description>

Earlier this year, the Buckeye Institute released a study written by Dr. Vedder and me critiquing the Ohio Board of Regents plan for Ohio&#8217;s higher ed future.

		<description><![CDATA[There will be a new report coming out this summer that shows how well for-profit colleges do in educating at-risk students. In fact, from preliminary reports, this study will show these for-profit colleges do better than other types of institutions for this at-risk group.
This research bolsters two studies the Buckeye Institute released earlier this year. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The Columbus Dispatch editorialized last week about the Strickland plan for public schools:
Strickland&#8217;s plan and his proposed budget would lock Ohio&#8217;s schools into business as usual, only with more money. It invests huge amounts of money in simply hiring more teachers, counselors, nurses and other employees &#8212; hence the enthusiastic union support &#8212; as if [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Kudos to Ohio State Rep. Seth Morgan who has filed suit with the Ohio Supreme Court seeking the Court&#8217;s backing in his quest to secure information for the Governor under Ohio&#8217;s Open Records Act (found in Ohio Revised Code&#8217;s Chapter 149).
Unfortunately the Governor has stiff-armed Rep. Morgan&#8217;s request for the evidence Strickland used to formulate his &#8216;Evidence-Based Education&#8217; plan for [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The news that Governor Strickland&#8217;s education finance proposal is being modeled not by the analytical research resources of the Ohio Department of Education but by a private firm of Driscoll and Fleeter is worth noting on several levels.
First, the Akron Beacon Journal among others scores the move for its obvious obfuscation of the workings of government.  Observers can&#8217;t see how &#8217;the sausage is being made&#8217; as they could [...]]]></description>

Check out our latest two pieces on higher education.  First, a critique of proposed policy by the Board of Regents found here, and then an alternative that funds students&#8217; educations, not institution&#8217;s peragatives &#8211; found here.

&#8220;There is so much there you could almost &#8216;gasp&#8217;,&#8221; said state Superintendent Deborah L. Delisle.
Let&#8217;s see, by the Governor&#8217;s proposal:  teacher union power grows, top-heavy bureaucracies grow, parental authority is diminished, schools continue to be [...]]]></description>
