OTHER VIEWS: Give free speech the old college try

5 days ago | claremoreprogress.com | Rob Collins

The college campus may very well be the last true bastion for the expression of differing viewpoints. For those of us who move on from academia, we get into the workforce and our social circles shrink. We have our workmates, our family and our church family and we see far fewer challenges to our opinions. kAm$@4:2= >65:2[ :? :ED 62C=:6DE DE286D[ >2J 92G6 366? 2 >2C<6EA=246 @7 :562D :?

1 week ago | kentuckyteacher.org | Rob Collins

(LEXINGTON, KY) – At Tates Creek High School (Fayette County), learning isn’t confined to textbooks or traditional lectures – it’s an active, immersive process that connects students with their community, the environment, and real-world problem-solving. Under the leadership of Cathy Sammons, an educator in the Kentucky Innovative Teacher Fellowship, 10th-grade students are exploring sustainability not just as a science concept, but as a civic responsibility.

My people voted for Trump, but I see firsthand the human cost of government cuts | Opinion

President Trump's plan to eliminate the Department of Education will negatively impact vulnerable communities. The most important work to be done is in local communities, not at the federal level. We must engage in respectful dialogue with people who hold differing political views. The greatest threat to our democracy is the erosion of our ability to see our neighbors as fellow citizens.
OTHER VIEWS: New measles cases should be a wake-up call

1 month ago | claremoreprogress.com | Rob Collins

We would hope, if nothing else, the outbreak of measles in Texas and New Mexico would help to highlight the importance of childhood immunizations. Two cases were confirmed in Oklahoma by the Oklahoma State Department of Health, though the agency says it is not a risk to the public. It would be helpful if the OSDH would supply more rudimentary information like locations and ages of the infected, but that isn’t the biggest issue at the moment.

Shaking up state school board a good idea

1 month ago | muskogeephoenix.com | Rob Collins

By Rob Collins When we think about our governing public boards like city councils, county commissions and boards of educations, we don't usually expect members to be in lock-step with every other member of the board. We expect them to be able to work things out, but they should be able to bring varied viewpoints into the meeting. That's more representative of the communities they serve. If there's conflict, that's not necessarily a bad thing.
EDITORIAL: Don't make petition process harder for Oklahomans

1 month ago | theadanews.com | Rob Collins

To us, Senate Bill 1027, another piece of legislation to alter the initiative petition process, is a solution looking for a problem. It’s already pretty tough for Oklahoma residents to go through the process and get a state question on the ballot, and SB 1027 aims to make it more difficult. kAm%96 3:==[ 244@C5:?8 E@ C6A@CE:?8 7C@> ~<=29@>2 '@:46[ H@F=5 =:>:E 9@H >2?J D:8?2EFC6D 42? 36 4@==64E65 :?

Reclaiming America’s Charitable Spirit: Letting the People Lead Our Philanthropy

1 month ago | townhall.com | Rob Collins

America stands as the strongest, wealthiest, and most generous nation on earth—a beacon of liberty, equality, and opportunity founded on God-given rights. Our nation’s founding principles have made us a force for good, inspiring humanitarian aid around the globe. Yet as we extend our hand overseas, we must ask: Are we truly living up to the promise of our ideals when government programs fall short at home?
EDITORIAL: Odds keep shifting on sports betting in Oklahoma

It seemed for a few days that Oklahoma was as close to legalized sports betting as it had ever gotten following the passage of a few new bills out of committee. “I refer you to my last response.”kAm%9@D6 2C6?’E v@G] z6G:? $E:EE’D 6I24E H@C5D[ 3FE :E’D E96 <:?5 @7 C6DA@?D6 J@F 86E H96?
