| Extract: "Are
teaching and research in America's colleges
and universities politicized? Many inside
the academy stoutly deny it, accusing critics
of exaggeration or even McCarthyite smears.
The critics reply that leaders in higher
education have put their heads in the sand
about politicization or, worse, are complicit
in covering it up and even encouraging
it." |

| Title: Children
at Risk: Comparisons of High-Risk Factors
for Children, RI, New England, National |
| Author: William
J. Felkner, President and Fellow for Welfare
and Education |

Extract: "This
data suggests that the key contributor
to the rise in “At Risk Families” in
Rhode Island is the growth of single
parent households.
The rise in single parent
households is predominately due to the rise
in unwed
mothers. The
education and family structure data suggests
that a large part of the increase
in unwed births is from an older population.
It may also be a reflection of an immigrant
population moving to RI after teen or school
years."
