Lots of columnists writing about education of late:
1. Matt Miller picks apart the president's speech on education with a pointed critique of the difference between his words and his actions.
2. Secretary of Education Arne Duncan pens an excellent op-ed piece about the lack of commitment to education among the school's participating in the NCAA Basketball Tournament over the next three weeks. An excellent point from his column:
"If a team fails to graduate even half of its players, how serious are the institution and coach about preparing their student-athletes for life?"
3. Lastly, former NBA player and basketball analyst Jalen Rose writes about the reasons why college athletes should actually be paid to play for their schools. While it seems controversial on the surface, Rose makes some great points in the column, which is definitely worth reading.
