    The Dismantling of an Urban School System: Detroit, 1980-2014

    The Dismantling of an Urban School System: Detroit, 1980-2014 by Leanne Kang A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Educational Studies) in the University of Michigan 2015 Doctoral Committee: Professor Jeffrey E. Mirel, Co-Chair Associate Professor Robert B. Bain, Co-Chair Professor Vincent L. Hutchings Associate Professor Vilma M. Mesa Assistant Professor Angeline Spain © Leanne Kang 2015 DEDICATION To my former students. ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This dissertation was possible due in large part to my adviser, Jeffrey Mirel and his seminal study of the Detroit Public Schools (1907-81). Inspired by The Rise and Fall of an Urban School System—which I title my dissertation after—I decided early in my graduate work to investigate what happened to Detroit’s school system after 1980. Thanks to Jeff’s mentorship, I quickly found a research topic that was deeply meaningful and interesting to the very end. He and his wife, Barbara Mirel, are also patrons of my husband’s music. Jeff was the adviser every graduate student hopes to have. The completion of this dissertation would not have been possible without Bob Bain courageously jumping into the middle of a project. I was so fortunate; Bob is one of the smartest people I have ever met. He modeled a way of thinking that I will take with me for the rest of my career. His feedback on every draft was incredibly insightful—sometimes groundbreaking— helping me see where to go next in the jungle of data and theory. And always, Bob believed in me and this project.

    S/L Sign on Letter Re: Rescue Plan State/Local

    February 17, 2021 U.S. House of Representatives Washington, D.C. 20515 U.S. Senate Washington, D.C. 20510 Dear Members of Congress: As elected leaders representing communities across our nation, we are writing to urge you to take immediate action on comprehensive coronavirus relief legislation, including desperately needed funding for states, counties, cities, and schools, and an increase in states’ federal medical assistance percentage (FMAP). President Biden’s ambitious $1.9 trillion American Rescue Plan will go a long way towards alleviating the significant financial strain COVID-19 has placed on our states, counties, cities, and schools, and the pocketbooks of working families. Working people have been on the frontlines of this pandemic for nearly a year and have continued to do their jobs during this difficult time. Dedicated public servants are still leaving their homes to ensure Americans continue to receive the essential services they rely upon: teachers and education workers are doing their best to provide quality education and keep their students safe, janitors are still keeping parks and public buildings clean, while healthcare providers are continuing to care for the sick. Meanwhile, it has been ten months since Congress passed the CARES Act Coronavirus Relief Fund to support these frontline workers and the essential services they provide. Without significant economic assistance from the federal government, many of these currently-middle class working families are at risk of falling into poverty through no fault of their own. It is a painful irony that while many have rightly called these essential workers heroes, our country has failed to truly respect them with a promise to protect them and pay them throughout the crisis.

    Issue No. 13 – 2020 (Published August 1, 2020)

    Michigan Register Issue No. 13 – 2020 (Published August 1, 2020) GRAPHIC IMAGES IN THE MICHIGAN REGISTER COVER DRAWING Michigan State Capitol: This image, with flags flying to indicate that both chambers of the legislature are in session, may have originated as an etching based on a drawing or a photograph. The artist is unknown. The drawing predates the placement of the statue of Austin T. Blair on the capitol grounds in 1898. (Michigan State Archives) PAGE GRAPHICS Capitol Dome: The architectural rendering of the Michigan State Capitol’s dome is the work of Elijah E. Myers, the building’s renowned architect. Myers inked the rendering on linen in late 1871 or early 1872. Myers’ fine draftsmanship, the hallmark of his work, is clearly evident. Because of their size, few architectural renderings of the 19th century have survived. Michigan is fortunate that many of Myers’ designs for the Capitol were found in the building’s attic in the 1950’s. As part of the state’s 1987 sesquicentennial celebration, they were conserved and deposited in the Michigan State Archives. (Michigan State Archives) East Elevation of the Michigan State Capitol: When Myers’ drawings were discovered in the 1950’s, this view of the Capitol – the one most familiar to Michigan citizens – was missing. During the building’s recent restoration (1989-1992), this drawing was commissioned to recreate the architect’s original rendering of the east (front) elevation.

    2011 POLITICAL CONTRIBUTIONS 2011 Lilly Political Contributions 2 Government actions such as price controls, pharmaceutical manufacturer rebates, the Prescription Drug User Fee Act (PDUFA), and access to Lilly medicines affect our ability to invest in innovation. Lilly has a comprehensive government relations operation to have a voice in the public policymaking process at both the state and federal levels. Lilly is committed to participating in the political process as a responsible corporate citizen to help inform the U.S. debate over health care and pharmaceutical innovation. As a company that operates in a highly competitive and regulated industry, Lilly must participate in the political process to fulfill its fiduciary responsibility to its shareholders, and its overall responsibilities to its customers and its employees. Corporate Political Contribution Elected officials, no matter what level, have an impact on public policy issues affecting Lilly. We are committed to backing candidates who support public policies that contribute to pharmaceutical innovation and healthy patients. A number of factors are considered when reviewing candidates for support. The following evaluation criteria are used to allocate political contributions: • Has the candidate historically voted or announced positions on issues of importance to Lilly, such as pharmaceutical innovation and health care? • Has the candidate demonstrated leadership on key committees of importance to our business? • Does the candidate demonstrate potential for legislative leadership?
