The original announcement of the event at Harvard Graduate School of Education on May 17 featured Tennessee Governor Bill Haslam as the luncheon speaker. Governor Haslam just signed anti-gay legislation. He is no longer the luncheon speaker. Louisiana State Superintendent John White is. Well, at least that’s keeping it inside the corporate reform family of voucher-loving, charter-loving privatizers. Notice that Campbell Brown, noted education scholar, is now moderating only one panel, not two. A distinguished academic gathering, to be sure.
