A2: Education

The Lansing State Journal publishes an op/ed by Lou Glazer, president of Ann Arbor-based Michigan Future Inc., who writes about the need for Michigan to invest in a knowledge-based economy: ”The world has changed fundamentally. We either adjust or we will continue to get poorer compared to the rest of the nation. Michigan has lagged in its support of the assets necessary to develop the knowledge-based economy at the needed scale. Building that economy is going to take a long time. Do we do what is required to compete in the knowledge-based economy or do we accept being a low prosperity state and region?” [Source]
