Don’t Slow the Edu Freight Train
July 29th, 2010 at 9:50 am By Joe SheeranEducation is like a freight train, it’s large, with many components and takes a little while to get going. But once it gets up to speed with the right engineer, it runs smoothly and efficiently, especially the Minnesota Line. But for the last eight years, we’ve had engineers in the Pawlenty administration slowing down the education train by undermining its mission through disinvestment. Even if a progressive governor takes the gears, it’s going to take that train a while to get going again. Earlier this week, we asked you what it would take to refuel the engine room and get the locomotive chugging us forward. We shared your comments on the UpTake (950AM) with Mike McIntee–his last radio show BTW.
