HARRISBURG (Heartland Newsfeed) -- School’s out in the summertime. So when Harrisburg School District superintendent Mike Gauch and his wife Angella, a teacher in Carbondale, decided they would drive to Springfield earlier this month, getting out of work wasn’t a concern. Unlike most working adults in Saline County, they are off work in July. This year, they spent part of their summer vacation successfully lobbying for a state income tax hike. When the tax hike passed, Angella Gauch lauded state legislators on […]

Remembering Henry David Thoreau and Civil Disobedience

Today, July 12, marks the 250th anniversary of the birth of Henry David Thoreau, known best for chronicling his experiment in simple and self-sufficient living in Walden.

The book helped inspire the World War II resistance, Gandhi, Martin Luther King, those struggling against apartheid, and others. And it still has […]

Do Schools Really Need More Money?

A common chorus of if/then statements dominates most contemporary discussions of education reform: If schools had more money, then they would do better at educating kids. If teachers were paid more money, then they would do better at educating kids. If there were more taxpayer support for traditional public schools, then we would have better education outcomes.

College tuition has little link to state funding, analyst determines

College tuition tends to rise regardless of how much money the state puts toward education, a new study reveals. Tuition goes up no matter what state legislators do," analyst Preston Cooper wrote after studying tuition trends for the American Enterprise Institute. "Public colleges, with state boundaries insulating them from competition, and generous federal student aid programs at their disposal, charge as much as they can get away with. Changes in state funding are largely irrelevant." In Illinois, schools needs more […]
