Among other things, I like the fact that: (1) He has led both a teacher pension system AND a combined PERS/SERS pension system; (2) He has solid experience in health insurance issues; (3) He is a huge Defined Benefit supporter – in a state where the governor was the opposite; (4) His wife is an elementary Reading Recovery teacher – which means that decisions he makes will ultimately affect his wife; and (5) He served 8 years as an elected school board member – and even acknowledged in one interview that [he] realizes administrators sometimes tell their school boards only what they want them to hear. Rare 10-0 vote by the STRS Board on a big issue.
