coe-staff: Citation of Ilana Umansky's work in The Economist

[Randy W Kamphaus]

Dear Faculty and Staff,

Lisa Fortin found this citation in the highly influential newsweekly, The Economist (please see article attached), "Recent research conducted by professors at the University of Oregon and Stanford University suggests English learners enrolled in bilingual and dual immersion programmes take longer than their peers in English-only ones to become fully proficient in English. But by high school, English learners in multilingual courses catch up to and surpass the academic performance of their peers in English immersion classes."

I offer my congratulations to Ilana for producing such societally relevant work.

Randy
