Dave Jennings, former Independent-Republican state House Speaker in the mid-'80s, a former Schwan's executive and most recently head of the Greater Minneapolis Chamber of Commerce, takes over a (new?) position as the Minneapolis school system's Chief Operating Officer. He'll make $125,000 a year.
http://www.startribune.com/stories/462/891373.html A question for list members and a free follow-up for fellow journalists: didn't the Chamber sit out the most recent class-size referendum and oppose an earlier one? If this is right (please corroborate or correct), what role did Jennings play in the organization's decision not to support funding for the school system he will now manage?
