The Week in Review is the Educational Policy Institute's weekly news recap on issues in education in the US, Canada, and around the world. The Week in Review provided links and summaries of stories we think are important about postsecondary access, preparation, and success. In addition, each weekly edition features an editorial commentary by EPI President Watson Scott Swail and EPI Vice President and Director of EPI Canada, Alex Usher.

For past issues of the Week in Review, see the links below. For past Commentaries, you can click here.
