— Review panel to consider funding ‘implicit bias’ and ‘antiracism’ training in schools – Greg Bishop (COMMENT: Ever-increasingly, Democrats blame Republicans for problems that minority students have.)
https://www.thecentersquare.com/illinois/review-panel-to-consider-funding-implicit-bias-and-antiracism-training-in-schools/article_ee06f854-3e78-11ec-b88e-2b9c0041190c.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Funding proposals for implicit bias and antiracism training in schools are coming into focus and some see it as an unnecessary controversy that distracts from education in the state’s 850 districts. A draft proposal from the Illinois State Board of Education Professional Review Panel set to be considered next month contemplates how to spend an additional $350 million from the evidence based funding model that lawmakers approved several years ago. There are recommendations for a variety of programs, including teaching foreign languages. There are also suggestions for “interventions to have more explicit focus on racial dynamic, including equity direct approaches that offer concrete strategies for teachers’ behavioral changes in the classroom and increased bias awareness.” The draft proposals “recognize that students of color do not inherently need additional supports by nature of their race/ethnicity, but that these students do face inequities because of historical and existing structures, and there is a cost attendant with working to dismantle those inequities through training on antiracism and eliminating implicit bias within schools and districts.” To address that, the proposal adds “a specific Professional Development cost … related to implicit bias and antiracism at a fixed per-pupil cost based on overall enrollment, with additional per-pupil dollar amount for all students where a district serves over 50% non-white students.”)

— Help Really Wanted: No Degree, Work Experience or Background Checks. Employers are easing job requirements and speeding up hiring procedures to survive a U.S. labor market with more openings than applicants. – Lauren Weber and Chip Cutter (COMMENT: Democrats run the federal government. I should write a book about how those Democrats have reduced federal job requirements since the 1960s to facilitate their hiring, retaining, and promoting Democrats, and especially Democrats who are minority, female, and/or younger. I would focus on what the Democrats who run IRS and GAO have done. Constructively, they rendered worthless a) the MBA from Loyola that I earned in 1976, b) my passing the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, c) the master’s degree in accounting from DePaul that I earned in 1980, d) my passing the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981, e) my becoming a licensed CPA in 1981, f) my becoming a Certified Fraud Examiner in 1990, Certified Government Financial Manager in 1994, Certified Financial Services Auditor in 1996, and Forensic Accountant in 1997, and g) my earning a master’s degree in financial markets and trading from IIT in 1997.)
