What Is Margaret Spellings Up To?
Thomas Mills connects some first dots in the Margaret Spellings era for the University of North Carolina system. Ain't looking good.
"It seems our university system is about to become yet another experiment for the conservatives who took over the state."

North Carolina longs for real integrity at the helm of its university system! C.D Spangler, Erskine Bowles, Tom Ross, Molly Broad,William Fridayy. We now have a hired gun stooge of vicious legislature.
There is only one way to respond - VOTE OUT NCGOP THIS NOVEMBER. We have to do everything we can to flush the system of such hate-filled destructive politicians!
J.W. Williamson was the founding editor in 1972 of the Appalachian Journal: A Regional Studies Review, which he edited until July of 2000. He has taught college classes in Appalachian history, cultural politics, and literature, and he has lectured widely on the pop-culture history of "Appalachia" in the American consciousness. His books include Interviewing Appalachia, Southern Mountaineers in Silent Films, and Hillbillyland: What the Mountains Did to the Movies and What the Movies Did to the Mountains. He has won the Thomas Wolfe Award given by the Western North Carolina Historical Society, the Laurel Leaves Award given by the Appalachian Consortium, a special Weatherford Award given by Berea College, and the Cratis Williams-James Brown Award given by the Appalachian Studies Association.
