ED stimulus "guidance"

ED stimulus "guidance"
3.8.2009

This weekend, the US Department of Education made more information available on stimulus funding.???? I haven't made my way through it all yet, but it's not at all what I was expecting.???? Folks had been using the term ???????guidance??????? (which has a specific meaning) for what was coming out, but that's not what we got.???? What was made available is more about logistics than content. ????So you'll find worthwhile information on when different streams of funding will be made available, what entities have to do to become eligible, etc.???? What you won't find is specific, meaty stuff on how the Department expects funds to be used.

If you're an ED insider, reporter, savvy DC operator, or anyone else for that matter, and you have more information or think I'm off base here, reach me at [email protected].
