The driver found responsible for an accident which injured former Wallingford Superintendent of Schools Dale Wilson and his wife last December, has been given substantial jail time. It is good to send the message that driving under the influence and reckless driving will earn time in prison.
Hikes totaling 17 percent over three years at UConn are a stiff price to pay for school improvement, considering that the state contribution has been cut. UConn should have been put in the higher education package with the state universities and community colleges and students should not, in this economy, be forced to pay substantially more.
We continue to feel that expansion of Meriden’s Linear Trail is an excellent investment for the city and for the residents. If federal money is received, moreover, the city’s share is only 20 percent of the total and the net cost is small change for a self-respecting city hoping to improve its prospects and self-respect.
Southington’s artificial turf committee is getting to work. It will have a lot of questions to ask and answers to receive.
Bassick High School in Bridgeport shows some excellent results with its education methods. It takes money, as well as willpower, and that’s in short supply not only in Connecticut’s largest city but in the state as well.
The tremendous success of Wallingford’s Trail of Terror has permitted the organization, now in its 17th year, to distribute around $130,000 to deserving charities locally. This is a trail well worth following.
