Ozarks At Large

Latest Edition of Ozarks at Large

Friday, January 10, 2014
Ahead on this edition of Ozarks…the 2013 Northwest Arkansas Education Report Card has numbers, plenty of numbers, relating to 17 public school districts in Washington and Benton Counties. We'll talk to Gary Ritter, the director of the Office for Education Policy at the University of Arkansas about the report. And the three-person band The Room Outside plays inside the Firmin-Garner Performance Studio. We'll also talk to Michael Tilley from The City Wire about the week’s news and Becca Martin Brown from Northwest Arkansas Newspapers about the upcoming weekend’s entertainment opportunities.
A recent public forum brought city and transportation fellows together to discuss the future of alternative travel in the region.
Although Becca Martin Brown from NWA Newspapers is a little bitter about those who get a Spring Break, she still has fun entertainment suggestions for them today.

Just a few years ago there was no such thing as a winter season when it came to TV. Now, as Wayne Bell explains, it is an important part of networks’ planning.
Dave Barry is coming to the Fayetteville Public Library next month. We’ll include an interview with him on a future edition of our program, but to kick off spring break week, a small preview of that conversation. To learn more about Dave Barry’s appearance in Fayetteville: www.faylib.org.
