Orfield in Star Tribune on School Resegregation

Associate Professor and Executive Director of the Institute on Race & Poverty, Myron Orfield was recently quoted in the Minneapolis Star Tribune on the pattern of school resegregation in the state of Minnesota. Orfield's comments included, "The state's segregation rules were substantially weakened in the late '90s. We used to be one of the very best places in the country on this issue (school integration), and now we're average."
