I'm not very used to being quoted as being more than just against someone or some policy - and that's OK since reporters generally give you one line, and they call me because few others will give the "com" sice on a Chicago-based story.

But it's kind of refreshing to read this article in "District Administrator" which looks at Ron Huberman's first year and reports that I don't like his lack of educational expertise or his continued and perhaps expanded use of data, but I like his attention to at-risk students. 

Overall, though, I would say that Huberman has not changed much, he has been VERY quiet compared with his predecessors, and is probably not going to be around for all that long.
