The entry did not specify that TUSD had been under a federal court order for 30 years. The entry did not also specify that the order was placed because of racial inequities and imbalances at Tucson schools. Nor was the name of the plan mentioned called Post Unitary Status Plan. The plan aims to figure out why minority students are punished at higher rates than their Anglo classmates in Tucson Unified School District. McGee also did not mention the statistics of the editorial article which were crucial because the district numbers state the imbalance of disciplinary action toward minority students.
The links McGee used in New Approach section didn't go to anything specific and there were over 200 articles about Crime and Punishment to search through, but it was a good source for free articles and information. In the Criminal Research section the link www.ncpa.org there was again "link rot". The article used from www.journals.democraticunderground.com was too brief and didn't meet my desire for statistics. However I liked the fact that she looked for objective studies from universities or criminal institutions. I also agree that discipline should be used but that not all problems with students of a school district can be solved using one approach.
