Broadcast icon Dick Enberg wrapping up work with Padres
He is an accidental broadcaster. He needed money as a student at Central Michigan University, so he took a job as a janitor at a radio station. The general manager heard Enberg’s voice and put him on the air, but Enberg earned his doctorate in health sciences and pursued a career in education. San Fernando Valley State College — now Cal State Northridge — hired him as a professor and assistant baseball coach in 1961. -- San Francisco Chronicle

Who Will Teach America’s Learning Disabled—and How?
I’m here to visit Lindsay Young’s classroom, where she is teaching a class as part of the Literate Adolescents Intervention Project. The program is a collaboration between the Los Angeles Unified School District and California State University, Northridge, where Young earned her master’s degree in special education and which is known nationally for its high-quality credentialing program for special education teachers. The day before, Lin-Manuel Miranda had announced that he would be departing from the musical he wrote based on Alexander Hamilton’s life. From the stage of Broadway’s Richard Rodgers Theater every night, Miranda would sing, “I’m young, scrappy, and hungry.” Around 3,000 similarly young, scrappy, and hungry (some literally so) students attend Hamilton High, part of the 667,000-student LAUSD—the nation’s second-largest school district. About 55 percent of Hamilton students come from economically disadvantaged homes, according to LAUSD. Half of them identify as Latino and nearly one-third as black. Tickets to see Miranda’s final performances brought $20,000 on the secondary market. Here, in an unglamorous neighborhood framed by auto repair shops and Interstate 10, $20,000 covers about half a year’s salary for a new teacher. -- Yahoo! Sports
