The argument is similar for maths and predictors of school maths abilities.
Both Buffalo, New York Public Schools and Denver, Colorado Public Schools are heralded as examples of school systems' ability to change to better serve students.
I recently spent a fair amount of time debriefing assorted business school eminences involved in ethics programs at Virginia, Berkeley, Harvard, Wharton, NYU and Northwestern and came away deeply dubious of the schools' ability to do anything meaningful about the kind of ethical lapses now on display.
