A lifetime ago, in my very first job, I worked as a college admissions dean for my alma mater. We always held admitted students’ visit weekend in April, and I was blown away to learn that the admission staff could predict the “yield” from that event (the share of visitors who’d enroll) based on the forecast. ☀️ = the class might be over-enrolled ☔️ = we might be going to the wait list They were never wrong in their weather-based predictions. I’ve always considered this to be a fascinating indicator about the whole college application endeavor.

"School choice proponents use language like “parents should vote with their feet” to conflate market and democratic ideals, but these are not the same... True democracies are more than the sum of individual preferences." p. 25 (4/7)

"[The system] expects parents to be active choosers, and, in turn, parents expect someone else to fix problems within the schools. These norms exacerbate two equity issues: parents without the resources are left behind, and individualization perpetuates segregation." p. 23 (3/7)

@markwarschauer They also slide this number to the bottom of the receipt. The only way I found it was surprising luck with searching my email. Good luck getting the app to work before the conference ends, though! Many lags on my end.

In some places, the population of the county is changing to become more diverse from 2000 to now. In others, patterns of neighborhood segregation remain unchanged. West of Wilmington diversified. Northeast remained an area with high proportions of residents who are Black.

We did a study like this in Alabama: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.111…. We learned population change led to more racially isolated schools there. This isn’t necessarily true in urban parts of the United States, but now I have seen this trend in two rural places in the country.

The population in this part of Mississippi is experiencing white flight. This means in a country (USA) that is diversifying, this area is less racially diverse now than in 2000.
