We have just posted a very interesting article from guest commentator Edward Carney, one of our newer contributors.  In this sure to be controversial piece Carney argues that education data is almost always irrelevant. The Irascible Professor, himself, is not in complete agreement.

Read the article and the Irascible Professor response at:

PS....  We still are looking for good articles on K-12 and higher education in the U.S.  We now are paying $75 US for each article that we post.
