Can we save our schools in Michigan?
Michigan public schools will lay off thousands of employees and more than 100 districts could be insolvent if the state doesn’t find a way to plug a $400-per-pupil funding shortfall in funding next year.

Debating Demolition & Downsizing in Detroit
The NY Times took a look at new efforts to save Michigan Central Station and NPR reports that with a quarter of Detroit's 350,000 buildings vacant or in shambles, Mayor Dave Bing wants to reshape the city by getting rid of them and relocating residents who live in desolate neighborhoods, saying it's too expensive to provide city services in areas that are like urban deserts.

Vote on Let's Save Michigan Posters!
Hundreds of posters were submitted, and the 60 finalists in the Detroit Institute of Arts & Let's Save Michigan Poster Contest have been posted online. Voting is underway, and it's a great chance to see what some artists feel Michigan has going for it.
