Staffing Up On Education At Bloomberg

I learned from this article in CJR Daily that Jim O'Neill is one of the Dallas Morning News writers who's joined Bloomberg's education team. O'Neill wrote an eight part series that's just been published this fall. He's apparently now the higher ed guy at Bloomberg, which earlier this month put out a big investigative piece about how testing errors have affected half a million students and teachers due to a highly unregulated and fast growing testing industry. See my post about that story, and the federal oversight study that I haven't heard anyone talk about in recent weeks, here.

Anyone who's got other education beat news, or a pic of O'Neill, let me know.
