Monday on Lake Effect: School Diversity, Harmony Test, Climate Change Farming

Monday on Lake Effect:

New research shows that even though parents say they want diverse schools, they often don’t make it a priority. We look at what that could mean about school choice in Wisconsin. Then, when Dr. Aoy Tomita-Mitchell was pregnant, she was faced with a serious dilemma, which led to medical innovation. Plus, our farming contributor Dave Kozlowski gives us a sobering update on the current challenges of farming.

Guests:

  • Richard Weissbourd, director, ‘Making Caring Common’ project at Harvard’s Graduate School of Education; Eric Torres, PhD student
  • Dr. Aoy Tomita-Mitchell and Dr. Michael Mitchell, Mitchell Laboratory, Children's Research Institute
  • Dave Kozlowski, Lake Effect farming contributor
