A satirical look at Rhee's 'Students First' (or how students fell to a tie for third)
Below is the lead “story” from a satirical Onion-esque publication designed for those of us who religiously follow education policy. The publication is called Education Tweak (EdTweak.com), and it’s anonymously authored and published. The new issue is actually #14; the other 13 issues were published back in 2009, and this full issue and all the back issues are available at edtweak.com.
