It has not yet been decided which school year will bring the introduction of the new start times. “The school board has been exploring the benefits of changing school start times for more than three years,” Robbinsdale School District Interim Superintendent Dr. Variety Burrage said in a statement. “Their goal was to move high schools to a later start time without incurring additional transportation costs.” The projected new times for school at each level are: 7:45 a.m. to 2:05 p.m. for elementary, 8:35 a.m. to 3:25 p.m. for high school and 9:20 a.m. to 4:05 p.m. for mid- dle school. The district is currently seeking bids from transportation companies in light of the proposed change. Once this process is complete, the district and school board will decide when the new start times will begin. According to Burrage, the altered schedule will bring “a potential annual savings of more than $75,000 in transportation costs.” Stellar Soul ranks In addition to working with the transportation companies, the district is now among Pixar's best developing a School Start Time Steering Committee that will lead the work using a Photo by LOU VANG subcommittee process.

  • A Report from Depaul University School of Music 2008–09
    SOUND INVESTMENT A Report from DePaul University09 School of Music 2008–09 letter from the dean october, 2009 Dear Friend, Our school was founded nearly a century ago, with modest (some would say “paltry”) facilities and limited expectations, but also with a fervent commitment to serve and the hopes that the new school would not only endure but become “respectable.” Now, 97 years later, we can look back over many generations of capable students and a very long string of dedicated and altogether memorable faculty and staff, and be genuinely astonished at all that these many folks accomplished. The DePaul School of Music rightly stands today as peer to the few finest and most celebrated music schools in America. I wonder if our founders ever imagined such a destiny for their fledgling cause. It was our faculty and staff who in large measure fueled this development—together with University leaders who sustained a faith in our part of DePaul’s story—who believed that a strong school of music could emerge from such modest circumstances and at a University that lived meagerly. Beyond that, it was giving and sacrifice that has made the difference, as individuals such as yourself gave the School what the University could not. Those gifts are woven into the fabric of what we’ve become and are now an Donald E. Casey important part of what we are. Whether the gifts were of a few dollars or a million or more, we are and Dean of the School of Music always will be deeply grateful. 2008-09 Now, though, we turn our gaze forward and imagine what the School of Music at DePaul will become.

Clarke Follow this and additional works at: https://chicagounbound.uchicago.edu/uclf Part of the Law Commons Recommended Citation Clarke, Jessica A. (2019) "The Rules of #MeToo," University of Chicago Legal Forum: Vol. 2019 , Article 3. Available at: https://chicagounbound.uchicago.edu/uclf/vol2019/iss1/3 This Article is brought to you for free and open access by Chicago Unbound. It has been accepted for inclusion in University of Chicago Legal Forum by an authorized editor of Chicago Unbound. For more information, please contact [email protected]. The Rules of #MeToo Jessica A. Clarke† ABSTRACT Two revelations are central to the meaning of the #MeToo movement. First, sexual harassment and assault are ubiquitous. And second, traditional legal procedures have failed to redress these problems. In the absence of effective formal legal pro- cedures, a set of ad hoc processes have emerged for managing claims of sexual har- assment and assault against persons in high-level positions in business, media, and government. This Article sketches out the features of this informal process, in which journalists expose misconduct and employers, voters, audiences, consumers, or professional organizations are called upon to remove the accused from a position of power. Although this process exists largely in the shadow of the law, it has at- tracted criticisms in a legal register. President Trump tapped into a vein of popular backlash against the #MeToo movement in arguing that it is “a very scary time for young men in America” because “somebody could accuse you of something and you’re automatically guilty.” Yet this is not an apt characterization of #MeToo’s paradigm cases.
