In a recent blog post, John Merrow reflects on this year’s “Education Nation” summit, an annual conference organized and hosted by NBC News:<\/p>\n

NBC News put on its third iteration of Education Nation earlier this week and did an even better job this year. I suppose that could be considered faint praise, because year one was pretty bad and year two was only fair-to-middling. <\/a> I\u2019d give the 2012 version a B or maybe a B- for \u201cperformance,\u201d but NBC News deserves an A for effort, because no one else is even attempting to create a national dialogue about what has to be recognized as our country\u2019s greatest challenge.<\/p>\n

For those who weren\u2019t there or following events online, on NBC, MSNBC or CNBC, here\u2019s some basic information:<\/p>\n

Three days of activities, including a couple of \u201cTown Hall\u201d meetings, dinner with General Colin Powell, interviews with former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice and Governor Romney, the President on video, three former Secretaries of Education and the current Secretary; the premiere of \u201cWon\u2019t Back Down,\u201d and dozens of short and generally tightly focused panel discussions.<\/p>\n

A superb venue: the elegant New York Public Library.<\/p>\n

Hundreds of eager and capable folks there to make sure we got to the right places.<\/p>\n

In short, Education Nation is now a \u201cmust attend\u201d event for wonks like me, and a lot of us were there.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
