The Editor's Notepod, Wed., Mar. 18, 2009

Area: more and more local kids choosing state university system, a fact which makes a whole lot of sense, given both the serious upgrades which have been made at these schools and the incredible costs of any private college. One can only hope that this is not derailed by the economy: the schools seem to be accepting more kids than they have room for.

Southington: Letter from Chief State’s Attorney’s office finds no criminal activity by Chief Daly. I’m happy for that, but I doubt that the letter will have settled the smoldering issues between the chief and the union.

Southington: The Pocock case revolves around what amounts to a leak about that restructuring plan, which no doubt fanned the flames . this has all got to be halted.

Meriden: the questionnaire for prospective board and commission members as printed raises no issues for me. They’re fair, and much better answered before, rather than raised when someone discovers them after they’ve been confirmed. Should have been done many years ago.
