  • Do early school start times put students' health at risk? One study says yes

    Oct 21, 2015

    Most mornings, Albert Durazo notices that his 15-year-old son, Caleb, is tired. The sophomore at Segerstrom High School in Santa Ana wakes up at 6 a.m. – then hits the snooze button for an extra half-hour – to get to school by 7:55, when the first bell rings. “He’s pretty lethargic in the morning,” Durazo said of his son. “It takes him a while to get into gear.” But once a week, the father of three sees something different. On Mondays, Segerstrom High doesn’t start classes until 9:30 a.m. This means an extra hour of sleep for Caleb and a mor...

  • Anoka-Hennepin resorts to debt collector for mounting school lunch debt

    Oct 21, 2015

    Anoka-Hennepin School District officials have agreed on a last-ditch effort to try to get back $160,000 from families owing $100 or more in school meal debts — a collections company. The state’s largest district aims to set up collections by January for families that haven’t responded to other means of contact. One family owes about $4,600 and another has a tab of about $2,000 — all in breakfasts and lunches that have gone unpaid. http://www.startribune.com/anoka-hennepin-resorts-to-debt-collector-for-mounting-school-lunch-d...

  • Run of fatal shootings has alarmed even veteran police officers

    Oct 21, 2015

    Abdirahman Mohamed pushed his way through the crowd that gathered at Karmel Mall on Tuesday afternoon, in search of answers. What he got instead was only frustration — a day after his father was gunned down on a south Minneapolis street, police still didn’t know who shot him or why. “The killings are like a cancer in our community,” said Mohamed, who drove 14 hours through the night from his home in Nashville after hearing the news that his father, Abdi Haji Mohamed Liiban, had been killed Monday afternoon. “They have to be stopped....

  • seek speakership if House GOP unifies behind him

    Oct 21, 2015

    WASHINGTON — Wisconsin Rep. Paul Ryan told GOP lawmakers late Tuesday that he will run for speaker, but only if they embrace him by week's end as their consensus candidate — an ambitious bid to impose unity on a disordered and divided House. Dragged reluctantly into seeking a job he never wanted, Ryan spoke to his colleagues behind closed doors, telling them he will run only with the endorsement of the major caucuses in the House. That includes the hardline Freedom Caucus that chased out the current speaker and his No. 2, and will now have vet...

  • Mondale is honored as the V.P. who changed the job

    Oct 21, 2015

    WASHINGTON – Walter Mondale was the first vice president to move his office into the White House — a decision that permanently changed the country’s No. 2 job and has reverberations in the current battle for the next president. Flanked by Vice President Joe Biden on a stage Tuesday, Mondale told an audience of local and national political luminaries gathered to honor him that he didn’t want to be bothered with the “details of government,” but be a daily decisionmaker in the West Wing, helping President Jimmy Carter parse the heaviest is...

  • The great lice debate: More schools are abolishing 'no-nit' policies and choosing not to send students home

    Oct 21, 2015

    The great lice debate is heating up this fall, with talk of so-called “super lice” and more school districts scrapping the old practice of sending children home until there’s no trace of the parasite. Many school districts in Minnesota and elsewhere now let stricken students stay in class instead of missing school for days on end. “It’s not causing disease. It’s not causing health complications,” Cindy Hiltz, a nurse and health services coordinator for the Anoka-Hennepin School District, said of the itchy bug that strikes an estimated 6 m...

  • Campus sexual assault policies, at U and elsewhere, drawing scrutiny

    Oct 21, 2015

    Weeks into her freshman year at the University of Minnesota, Courtney Blake was sexually assaulted in her dorm room. She reported it to campus officials, rather than police. Though the young man argued the sex was consensual, he was found to have violated the student conduct code and put on disciplinary probation, given mandatory counseling and assigned to write a paper, according to an investigation document. Blake was moved to another dorm. http://www.startribune.com/campus-sexual-assault-policies-draw-scrutiny/334869351/...

  • The real story about retirement: Millions of baby boomers face financial crisis

    Oct 21, 2015

    Judy Davis works for a nonprofit organization helping homeless families overcome obstacles, find a place to live and bring stability to their children’s lives. “Kids are my passion,” Davis said. “Anything I can do to help kids, that’s what I’m here for.” The St. Paul woman is happy with her job and plans to continue working as long as she can. Which is good because, at 57, Davis has saved very little money to live on in retirement. http://www.startribune.com/the-real-story-about-retirement-millions-of-baby-boomers-face-finan...
