In remembrance of Ed Schuh

The Humphrey Institute's former dean, friend, and mentor, Regents Professor Ed Schuh, passed away over the weekend. He was in the care of family and friends and will be deeply missed. Professor Schuh was well-respected and very accomplished in his career. He was enjoying praises from his most recent honor from the University of Minnesota, the 2008 President's Award for Outstanding Service. This prestigious award is presented each year in the spring and honors those who have gone well beyond their regular duties and have demonstrated an unusual commitment to the University community, an award truly deserved by Professor Schuh.

School Change Exchange blog launches!

School Change Exchange joins Policy Catalyst, By the People, and Smart Politics as the fourth Humphrey Institute research center blog.

csc.jpgSchool Change Exchange begins its life as the primary publicity platform for the Center for School Change's (CSC) new outreach initiative aimed at educating students and parents about the educational opportunities made possible via Post Secondary Enrollment Options (PSEO).

Leading CSC's blog efforts are program director Laura Bloomberg, center staff members Naima Bashir and Sheena Thao, and a diverse and talented group of current and former PSEO students who will publish essays and multimedia pieces relating their own experiences studying as a college student while still in high school.

All of these blogs have been created using the University of Minnesota's UThink system and can be found in one central space—the Humphrey blog digest, located at the memorable (and almost pronounceable!) URL blog.hhh.umn.edu. From the Humphrey blog digest, you can subscribe to each of the research centers' RSS news feeds (click the preceding link to learn how to use RSS feeds), read the latest stories from each of the research center blogs in one place, and access the internal Humphrey community blogs, Institute Insider from Humphrey communications and An Affair to Remember by the Public Affairs Student Association.

Additionally, you can subscribe to Humphrey Institute In the News for a daily digest of media appearances made by Institute faculty, staff, and students, maintained by the Institute's communications office.
