This kind of thing was always inevitable, and is largely why school administration was taken away from elected officials in the past. It’s a bitter lesson, still unlearned by most.

You being a historian, Diane, I can picture you smiling ruefully when you see this stuff. The settings and players change, but the dynamics, roles and themes are eternal.

Blog readers: please note that a major Chicago newspaper REPORTED this! And–it was on the FRONT page–HEADLINE!–with a picture, PLUS two full pages of text.
The press is coming around, people–the truth shall prevail.
