U.S. Education Department, 10 Years Old This Month, Gets Mixed Reviews.

DeLoughry, Thomas J.

Chronicle of Higher Education, v36 n34 pA21,24 May 9 1990

The existence of a cabinet department for education has made education issues more prominent, but the Education Department is faulted for doing little to further the federal interest in providing education for minority and economically disadvantaged students. Educational policy making continues to be dominated by Congress. (MLW)
