Sweet chili Petrilli

12.22.2011

This week, Mike and Rick discuss Fordham and Northwest Evaluation Association's latest report, The Accountability Illusion (after John Cronin, one of the authors and studio guest, gives us a Research Half Minute), what to make of Arne's $650 million, and Milwaukee's flirtation with mayoral control. Then Amber tell us about a new Mathematica and IES report that's not really about alternative certification, and Rate that Reform frowns on facial ornaments in Central Florida. Click here to listen through our website and peruse past editions. To download the show as an mp3 to your computer, click here (no iPod required--this link will play through any music software on your computer, including Windows Media Player or RealPlayer).
