Local leaders weigh UPMC Jameson proposed transfer of the nearly century old South Campus to New Castle as a solution to debt and aging facilities. With an $850,000 district deficit and a $700,000 annual revenue potential vs $1.2 million annual costs, officials question whether the city can absorb the burden or instead pursue tearing down the facility for redevelopment. The piece notes prior service reductions, merger plans, and calls for responsible stewardship while cautioning that two goals may not align.
The piece argues that racial discrimination cannot fully explain black social and educational problems. It cites rising black youth unemployment, high illegitimacy, and lower test scores, contrasting with earlier eras. It claims political and intellectual elites profit from victimhood narratives, urging accurate diagnostics rather than assigning causality to discrimination. It references Gutman and The Nation's Report Card to challenge prevailing explanations.
English teachers note striking parallels between Melania Trump's GOP convention speech and Michelle Obama's 2008 address. The piece argues most plagiarism results from reliance on others and questions the campaign's honesty, warning that writers lose craft when others supply the words.
