  3. Want a respite from winter's icy blasts? Try seven nights of chamber music

    There's always room for more chamber music, even in a metropolitan area such as Chicago that's already blessed with a plethora of chamber groups and performances throughout the season. Despite that abundance, Northwestern University's Winter Chamber Music Festival rates special attention.

  5. Englewood lends voice to history project

    It has been four months since Matt Damon came to school, and though the buzz is gone the bell still rings. Thirty sophomores file into Room 324 at TEAM Englewood Community Academy in the heart of one of the city's most beleaguered neighborhoods. Many of these children know people who have been robbed or wounded by gunfire. A few have had a family member who was murdered.

  6. Florida's test-obsessed style of education hits disabled families hard

    Andrea Rediske knew her special-needs son had no business taking standardized tests.

    No matter what side you are on, the "parent trigger" bill is a lesson in the worst kind of politicking. Heated accusations of ulterior motives? Plenty. Using kids as pawns? You bet. High-level interference by the governor's office? Of course....

  9. Educator backs state's Keystone Exams

    Professional word merchants can get a little insecure when some unjournalist comes along and does a better job of putting passages together. It happens to me all too often. I'll write a column filled with dazzling piquancy and logic, and along comes...

    WASHINGTON -- The real vocation of some people entrusted with delivering primary and secondary education is to validate this proposition: The three R's -- formerly reading, 'riting and 'rithmetic -- now are racism, reproduction and recycling.

  12. Movie secrets are there, in the script!

    You know what "Star Wars" is about? I mean, <em>really</em> about? Vietnam. It's a critical allegory of the war: The Rebels are the scrappy Viet Cong, hastily assembled, devoted and relentless; the Empire is the American military, tripped up by an enemy using guerrilla tactics and inferior weaponry. Oh, there's more here, but...
