TECHNICAL TRAVAILS: Due to some continuing server trouble, our alert of Wednesday night didn't make it through until tonight, except to about 400 of you. We apologize for the two posts in one night, and to the 400 of you who received two copies of the alert. We are close to having these problems resolved, and thank you for bearing with us in the meantime.

ALERT! DRCNet's 501(c)(4) lobbying entity is running desperately short of funds. This won't threaten our educational programs, like the DRCNN radio show and most of the articles in the Week Online, which are funded mainly by grants and major gifts to our 501(c)(3) educational foundation. But it will prevent us from issuing important legislative alerts and from pursuing some of our key projects, including the Higher Education Act reform project (see http://www.u-net.org), unless members like yourselves come through.
