Planning And Managing School Facilities, Theodore J. Kowalski

Educational Leadership Faculty Publications

Theodore Kowalski addresses the administrative procedures associated with planning and managing school facilities. Practitioner interest in school facilities has been growing rapidly in recent years because decades of neglect, poor planning, and cost cutting have created a situation in which large numbers of America's school buildings are in need of major repair or replacement.

At the same time, the realization that costs related to repair and replacement have escalated significantly has fueled a new concern among school facility planning and management.

Writing for school administrators, superintendents, and board members as well as graduate students in education, Kowalski discusses planning from …

The Financial Effects Of Farmland Reassessment On Rural Schools In East Central Illinois, Donald D. Morgan

The study compares data from the year before the Farmland Assessment Act of 1981 with the data for the latest year available. An analysis of the EAV for every school in the study indicated that farmland reassessment …

Regulatory Economics In The Courts: An Analysis Of Judge Scalia's Nhtsa Bumper Decision, W. Kip Viscusi

Vanderbilt Law School Faculty Publications

The automobile bumper standard issued by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) in 1982 was the product of a decade of policy debate.' This debate continued in the courts until ultimately the NHTSA bumper standard was upheld in 1985. Judge Antonin Scalia authored the majority opinion in the case upholding the standard, and his opinion is the subject of this paper. The NHTSA bumper standard is by no means a landmark regulation with sweeping economic consequences. The debate over the standard centers on the degree of protectiveness to be required of front and rear automobile bumpers. In particular, the …
