Great summary of the attractiveness of our fully-funded Ph.D. program in Education Policy by @hpatrinos: "If you are curious, comfortable questioning conventional wisdom and want your research to matter beyond the university, then education policy is a great place to build a career." https://t.co/uASrLmpthj

Great essay by @ua_edreform alum @annaegalite quotes a public school superintendent: "The only viable response (to #schoolchoice competition) is to become “more accommodating, more receptive and more accessible to parents and students.”"

STUDY ALERT: The latest research on the supply side of private #schoolchoice by @ua_edreform alum @hmatthewlee finds "choice programs may increase access unevenly across the private sector, but...supply increases over time." https://t.co/rODnQS6jQj

Excellent long-form piece by my @ua_edreform colleague Bob Maranto: "Scholarly journals are not for political activism, but instead for disseminating thoughtful essays and empirical studies that increase knowledge." Here, here! @hpatrinos @shulsie @marshalldavidt2 https://t.co/8NZ4sSwuC2
