[Ohiogift] akron beacon articles on the state board

[R Scott Prigan]

The Dispatch picked up this ABJ story too. Kind of amazing! 

http://www.dispatch.com/content/stories/local/2013/11/17/lobbyists-deny-conflict-of-interest.html

Dispatch also ran this one (hard to find on their site) from same origin:
http://www.ohio.com/news/local/ohio-s-state-school-board-shifts-emphasis-from-traditional-public-schools-to-parent-driven-choice-1.445521

It as much admits that swamping board with appointees was effort to avoid dealing responsibly with DeRolph!
It really made me sick to read how so many of these appointees have agendas other than promotion of PUBLIC education.

Looks like might need an initiative to restore board to ELECTED only.
