Law School to be located in Shreveport
… The Louisiana College Board of Trustees and President Joe Aguillard announced today that the Louisiana College Judge Paul Pressler School of Law will be located in Shreveport, Louisiana. In addition, the founding dean of the law school was also announced, J. Michael Johnson, Esq.
“It is after much research, consideration and prayer that we have chosen Shreveport, Louisiana to be the home of the Louisiana College Judge Paul Pressler School of Law,” explained Dr. Joe Aguillard, President of Louisiana College. “Many factors influenced our decision including the expansive legal community in the Shreveport-Bossier area, a large supply of judges and lawyers to serve as adjuncts and the fact that this location will serve not only central Louisiana but the entire Ark-LA-Tex region.”
Shreveport city leaders, members of the local judiciary, and the Shreveport Bar Association have all expressed enthusiastic support for the school. “The Shreveport Bar Asso
Marquette University’s new building gives law school vital space

The third-floor reading room at Marquette University’s new law school building, Eckstein Hall, provides a spacious and attractive study area. In legal circles, the $85 million Michigan St. building is making waves because it provides the tools for modern law, which is more technologically oriented and media intensive.

The secret to Highlands’ success …
Today I asked Beechwood football coach Noel Rash, leading up to Friday’s game at Highlands, what impressed him most about Highlands, its coaches and its current run of success.
I liked his response.
“They take kids who are 5-9, 170 pounds and they make them into absolute maniacs,” Rash said. ”I wish I could steal the formula.”
Instructors get crash course on special ed in MPS

Andy Tonies, who is returning for a second year at Bradley Tech High as a special ed teacher, on Tuesday prepares his classroom for the first day of school. He came up through the Milwaukee Teaching Fellows, which is part of the New Teacher Project in Milwaukee.
Standing at the front of a darkened room in a Capitol Drive office building in late July, teacher-trainer Betty Menacher clicked through a presentation on a highly technical but essential topic – how to assess students’ reading.
Her audience was a group of career-switchers who within weeks would be using what they’d learned during the five-week Milwaukee Teacher Education Center crash course to tackle one of education’s most difficult challenges: teaching special-education students.
Fast forward to Wednesday, the first day of school: Those individuals will join others with no previous teaching experience or traditional training who’ll also be teaching in special-education classrooms in Milwaukee Public Schools.
Special education has been a critical shortage area in MPS for years, exemplified by the fact that not one special-education teacher was included in the 482 layoff notices that went out in June.
How to Save Money on School Supplies
School supplies may be costing families more than they think. In a voluntary user poll conducted by USAA, people underestimated how much the average American family spends on back-to-school shopping for children in kindergarten through 12th grade by over $100.00. In fact, families will spend an average of $606.00 this year on back-to-school supplies, shoes, clothing and electronics.
But you don’t need to shell out that much this fall. Here are some ideas to help your family save money on back-to-school products. Not only are these tips good for your bank account, many of them are good for the environment too.

2. Conserv
