The Birth-to-Five Policy Landscape: Improving the safety net for our children and their caregivers
Join the Crane Center for Early Childhood Research and Policy and the John Glenn College of Public Affairs for a special, in-person only, policy chat featuring Dr. Lauren Jones.
Dr. Lauren Jones will discuss important federal and state policy tools aimed at improving the well-being of children and their caregivers, including the Child Tax Credit and Earned Income Tax Credit, subsidized child care, child care regulation and quality. The discussion will highlight current issues and opportunities in this policy space, research on the impact of the programs, and how the Crane Center’s policy team is engaging with states to inform research-based policy-making to benefit our youngest citizens and those who care for them.
What to expect: Crane Policy Chats provide opportunities to discuss and learn about policy issues in early childhood. Hosted by Jamie O’Leary, Crane’s associate director of policy and external affairs, these conversations feature guests who share insights, research, and expertise in a conversational format that resembles a podcast. Participants have ample opportunity to offer comments, ask questions, and consider ways they can apply insights or lessons.
Parking: The closest parking is nearby at the Ohio Union South Garage.

EDU Faculty Early Career Development Program (CAREER) Workshop (Zoom)
The Faculty Early Career Development (CAREER) Program is a Foundation-wide activity that offers the National Science Foundation’s most prestigious awards in support of early-career faculty who have the potential to serve as academic role models in research and education and to lead advances in the mission of their department or organization. Activities pursued by early-career faculty should build a firm foundation for a lifetime of leadership in integrating education and research. NSF encourages submission of CAREER proposals from early-career faculty at all CAREER-eligible organizations and especially encourages women, members of underrepresented populations, and persons with disabilities to apply.
EVENT: The workshop is intended to provide guidance and mentorship to prospective CAREER applicants to the NSF Directorate for STEM Education. It will serve as an opportunity for participants to gain a better understanding of the program, including eligibility requirements, the application process, and outcomes of past CAREER awardees, and for participants to interact with other applicants, former awardees, and NSF program officers.
High School Graduation By the Numbers
Please join Dr. Douglas Harris, Schlieder Foundation Chair in Public Education, Director of the National Center for Research on Education Access and Choice (REACH), and Professor and Chair of the Department of Economics at Tulane University, for a discussion on high school graduation rates, the future of high school graduation rates, and accountability in graduation standards.

Bio
Dr. Douglas Harris
Douglas Harris is Professor and Chair of the Department of Economics, the Schlieder Foundation Chair in Public Education, founding Director of both the Education Research Alliance for New Orleans (ERA-New Orleans) and Director of the National Center for Research on Education Access and Choice (REACH), all at Tulane University. His research has influenced policy and practice on a wide variety of K-12 and higher education policy issues. He is the author of three books including, most recently, Charter School City: What the End of Traditional Public Schools in New Orleans Means for American Education (University of Chicago Press, 2020). He is also a non-resident Senior Fellow at the Brookings Institution and has testified in the U.S. Senate and advised governors in eight states, the U.S. Department of Education, and Biden Transition. His work has also been cited in almost every major national and international media outlet.
In his most recent work, he is the lead editor on the forthcoming Live Handbook of Education Policy, sponsored by the Association for Education Finance and Policy. The handbook will provide open-access summaries of a wide variety of topics in pre-K, K-12, and higher education, written by leading experts but in a way that will be broadly accessible and regularly updated with the latest research. The Live Handbook, to be released in March of 2025, will provide a new way of communicating and interacting with scientific research, one that combines academic expertise with modern online tools such as Wikipedia.
Finally, he is Director of the State of the Nation Project. The project is designed to address current problems of polarization, distrust, pessimism, and misinformation by bringing together a diverse board of experts to identify the most important measures that address the question, how are we doing as a country? Slated for release in January of 20205, the project’s first report will cover topics ranging from education and the economy to the environment and health.
