- More Tests Please
  Posted by okami
  No Child Left Behind has created the wrong kind of debate about testing. Given the lack of new funding, many states are jiggering their tests to obscure the failure of poorly performing schools and undermining the accountability that was the core goal of the program. Others are attempting to opt out of the program altogether. The process is wasteful, confusing to students, and fails to produce the information that education enterprises badly need to ensure continuous improvement in what they do

  Mutual fund managers invest more money in companies that are run by people with whom they went to college or graduate school than in companies where they have no such connections. The interesting part is that these investments do better than the other investments. That might be evidence of insider trading.
