So who’s it going to be for Ed Secy, Obama?

President-elect Obama has named a lot of cabinet folks lately, but there hasn’t been a name leaked yet for education secretary. Arne Duncan (superintendent of Chicago schools), Richard Dailey (Chicago mayor), Joel Klein (chancellor of New York schools) and Linda Darling-Hammond (Stanford professor) are getting some buzz but nothing official yet. It’s probably not a good sign for education as a priority in the new administration.

Newsweek has a good update on the two education camps and what they want (and fear) in an education secretary.

Hopefully, we’ll get some news soon.
