The Road To Sprawlville, Chapter 42, Leads To Detroit
Gregory Stanford, my former newsroom pal, has a wonderful blog, and a very relevant posting.
It becomes the latest chapter in our ongoing series, The Road To Sprawlville, which usually wends its way past the County Grounds, into Waukesha County, through the Kettle Moraine, or across Dane County farm land.
This is our first trip to Michigan, sadly...
Check it out.
(Note: The chapter title numbering has been changed, and installments of The Road To Sprawlville will no longer be expressed in Roman numerals.)

Loved the article and left this comment:
I agree with the residency requirement. I believe they tried to rescind the requirement here in Milwaukee. Didn't happen. We (black folk) who live here in the City of Milwaukee know that most (white) folks who work for the City of Milwaukee and Milwaukee Public Schools (MPS) keep a City of Milwaukee address, but actually live in the suburbs. I actually had a coworker whose daughter could not find a teaching job in the suburbs where she really wanted to work (due to budget cuts), so she used a friend's address in Milwaukee and got a job with MPS all the while really living outside of Milwaukee in the suburb of Franklin. This woman definitely "did not" want to work with children of color,but because she could not find work elsewhere, she went to the school district that had job available. Maybe that is what's wrong with MPS!
