A Shout Out to...

Eduwonkette for exposing the BloomKlein budget cut sham in All Purpose Equity
So much good stuff in here, but here's a highlight:

When it comes to school funding, what does it mean to treat students "equitably?" Does equity imply treating each student the same by providing each student the same level of funding? Or does equity require a recognition that students bring different levels of disadvantage to school, and as a result, disadvantaged students must be treated differently in order to be treated equitably?

and to David B. at Pseudo-Intellectualism for some fun support.
