Refugees face new peril as welfare cuts drive relocations

Linthong Siharath, a former Laotian officer who fled to Thailand, Salem, Oregon, last year, now moves to Utah amid recession and new federal rules cutting cash and medical aid for refugees after 18 months. Oregon and Washington anticipate major losses of Indochinese aid, with thousands more likely to relocate seeking state welfare and jobs as unemployment among refugees soars.

Black White Achievement Gap Narrows. 1970s Trends

A Baltimore Sun summary of an Educational Researcher study showing the black white achievement gap among 9 and 13 year olds narrowed by up to a third from 1970 to 1980 across math, science, reading, writing and social studies. Researchers cite programs like Title I but avoid direct causation, noting mixed trends in 1970s progress with no uniform surge across all subjects. The work, by Burton and Jones, uses NAEP data and finds no broad 1970s trend for all students, with some gains in reading and social studies and slight declines in science and math.
