Dear colleagues,

I am forwarding the following alarming report (The New York Times, April 24,
2010) on neo-liberal manifestation of PPP in school education in USA. Let us
draw lessons from this as to what must be happening already in India and
will happen more in the near future and wreck our education system.

School boards and regulators are questioning how public money is spent by a
commercial manager of charters.
