In March, the James B. Hunt, Jr. Institute for Educational Leadership and Policy convened lieutenant governors and their policy advisors in Washington, DC, for its 2007 Lieutenant Governors Education Symposium. The event, co-hosted by Michigan Lieutenant Governor John Cherry, Jr. and former North Carolina Governor Jim Hunt, provided an opportunity for a bipartisan group of lieutenant governors to meet with some of the foremost experts in education and public policy to share ideas and discuss critical issues facing our education system. The Symposium included a rich discussion of research and current state efforts related to college and workforce readiness, math and science education in the primary grades, and out-of-school time (OST) services.
