by STAFF WRITER - CBS NEWS - DFW | Pub: 07/20
Historians say the latest Mexican American history textbook being considered by the Texas Board of Education is riddled with errors. The chorus of educators united Monday to demand that the book for Texas high school students be rejected. Lilliana Saldaña, an associate professor of Mexican American Studies at the University of Texas at San Antonio, said the errors begin as soon as you open the book. “In the first chapter we found at least three to four severe errors — on each page.”

It’s no secret that the escalating cost of textbooks has a significant impact on students and their ability to succeed in their classes.

This additional cost not only impacts students’ ability to attend college, but also their ability to continue and complete coursework.

The clicking of keys and the scratching of pen across paper created a quiet buzz that filled the air. Tables spread out around the room were filled with teachers from all walks of life. Some of them taught in elementary schools while others in middle or high schools. Four of them, however, traveled thousands of miles from countries around the world to come to UTSA’s College of Education and Human Development and the San Antonio Writing Project (SAWP).

For many young Americans, college is a time of learning new subjects, experiencing dorm living, attending weekend parties, and enjoying plenty of dining hall food.

by Texas Tribune, Inside Higher Education | 07/07
Three professors at the University of Texas at Austin on Wednesday sued the university and the state and asked a federal judge to issue an injunction to block a campus carry law from taking effect Aug. 1, The Texas Tribune reported. The state has vowed to move ahead with the law. The suit charges that the law violates faculty members' First and Second Amendment rights. By making professors fear that their discussions of controversial topics could incite violence, the law limits their First Amendment free expression rights, the suit says.
