Class warfare by a “conservative”, very nice. I don’t like Romney at all, but this is not going to help Perry.

Faculty Lounge - A tale of Sherpas and superstars [Perry's Higher Education Reform]
.What Governor Perry actually proposed was this: 1) Students evaluations and some other information about faculty performance should be made public; 2) The best teachers should receive bonuses, based in part on students ratings; 3) The research and academic budgets should be separated, with teachers paid according to their teaching duties and researchers paid in proportion to the funding they attract; 4) Faculty should have to show that they can in fact teach before they are granted tenure; 5) Students should receive a personalized learning contract upon enrollment, along with information about the graduation rates and average starting salaries for students with the same major and comparable SAT scores; 6) Legislative appropriations should go to students directly rather than to the universities; 7) The universities should support an effort to develop a new national accreditation program that would evaluate institutions on measurable student progress.
Youd think that No. 6 would be the deal-breaker it would have voucherized higher education, forcing the universities to compete for students and the dollars they bring with them, rather than treating students like not-entirely-welcome guests who are privileged to be at the party. But the reformers didnt even make it that far down the list: No. 1 sent academia into fits.

I agree. We have enough democrats playing the class warfare card. Perry needs to tell me what he is for and not attack fellow Republicans.

I agree. Not only is Perry playing the class warfare card... he’s also continuing with the Mormon fear factor card. Mitt practices the biblical law of the tithe. That’s ten percent. He’s going to try to show Mitt giving millions (an easy tenth in terms of Mitt’s income)
to the LDS Church as something sinister... imho
