  2. Random testing can send students a harmful message

    There is no place for drugs in school, and Lake Highland Preparatory, as a private school, has every legal right to subject its students to random drug testing. Although courts have held that random drug testing in public schools violates the Fourth Amendment, private schools are not bound by the constitutional provisions constraining public schools, such as freedom of speech, freedom of religion and the right to be free from unreasonable searches.

  3. The freedom to create

    The Salem News
    If ever an artist was aptly christened, it is Norman LaLiberte, whose surname can be translated as "freedom," a principle he exercises throughout his work. There is freedom in his vivid use of color, in his adaptation of sources from the range of art...

  6. Review: 'The Third Coast' by Thomas Dyja

    The title of the first chapter of Thomas Dyja's "The Third Coast: When Chicago Built the American Dream," evokes a smile: "The Brick Is Another Teacher." Dyja's book is roughly brick-size and brick-heft, and I wondered what it might have to teach. • His subtitle suggests that Dyja aims to join the long and semi-honorable tradition of Chicago boosterism, books that claim Chicago is "world-class" in something, or that Chicago's influence on this, that or the other aspect of American culture has been underestimated. Such urban braggadocio was one foundation of Chicago, which grew from prairie trading post to world city so quickly in no small part due to the extreme claims of developers and politicians. But back to bricks.

  7. Taking the less-known route

    If you can't get in — or can't afford — a top business school, is an MBA from a lesser-known school worth it?
    If you can't get in — or can't afford — a top business school, is an MBA from a lesser-known school worth it? The answer depends largely on the student. Those gunning for the top of the organizational chart, and without the networking...

  9. Enrollment numbers force schools to adjust

    MBA enrollment numbers generally have remained flat over the last few years, but Chicago business schools insist their programs aren't suffering. Instead, they're diversifying — offering prospective students more options.

  10. Culture clash: New history of Chicago taps into our malaise

    "The Third Coast: When Chicago Built the American Dream" has an elegant, unflinching, non-nostalgic clarity about Chicago that you rarely see in books about Chicago.
    Thomas Dyja looked at me with abject horror, then humor, then, as his face crumbled in defeat, resignation. A face that said, "See? This is why I wrote a 412-page cultural history of Chicago at midcentury that — as much as it pulls together...
