The UK based #QS & #THE world university ranking scam exposed:
No wonder the #UK, and the rest of the world, are mass hiring Filipinos and non-Filipinos who graduated from #Philippines universities—because we rank very low.

The #Trump admin has *declined* to release nearly $7 billion in federal #funding for #schools that helps pay for after-school & summer programs, support for #students learning English, #teacher training & other services.
The money, which was already allocated by #Congress, was expected to be released by Tuesday. But in an email on Monday, the Trump *#Education* Department notified #state education agencies that the money would not be available.

In #books: It’s typical of José Skinner’s approach that his main protagonist is not some self-assured reflection of his own qualifications, but rather Quigley, a dopey gringo vacillating between colonial-gaze fascination and fear of a world he doesn’t understand. https://www.texasobserver.org/the-search-committee-border-literary-canon/
Alaska Ignored Warning Signs of a Budget Crisis. Now It Doesn’t Have Funding to Fix Crumbling Schools.
—
Lawmakers only budgeted $40 million of the nearly $800 million that districts say is needed to fix and maintain schools to keep them safe and operating. Gov. Mike Dunleavy then vetoed more than two-thirds of that.
