The standoff has echoes of the federal government’s battle with states over desegregation more than half a century ago, when school systems across the South refused to follow the landmark 1954 Brown vs. Board of Education court order that they desegregate -- until the federal government threatened to cut off education funds, says Jane Wettach, an education law expert.
National service programs such as the Peace Corps and AmeriCorps offer big rewards at a bargain price, says Eric Mlyn. Mlyn is assistant vice provost for civic engagement at Duke University and director of the DukeEngage program.
