PA in the WSJ

Whoa! There is nothing Pennsylvania related in the Wall Street Journal these days. Somebody find some stock fraud or promote a local company or something.

Chances are I missed something, but these are the articles that caught my eye.

It should be noted that I routinely do not read the editorials in the WSJ. So any discussions of the state, its elected officials, businesses, or citizens, in editorials will not be mentioned here.

PA Politicians

Nothing

PA Businesses

Zip

Other PA

One of the examples given in “When special education goes too easy on students,” by John Hechinger and Daniel Golden (8/21) is at West Philadelphia High School

Carnegie Mellon is mentioned in “Zipcar goes to college,” by Darren Everson (8/22)

A coach from Churchville is quoted in “Are we teaching our kids to be fearful of men,” by Jeffrey Zaslow (8/23), a thought-provoking piece.

Among the “Private properties,” (by Christina S. N. Lewis) listed on 8/24 is Allen Iverson’s fixer upper in Villanova. The asking price is only 6.3 million.

Other Interesting Tidbits

No mention of politics in “A new generation reinvents philanthropy,” by Rachel Emma Silverman (8/21)
