...and Where's Joanne's Ethics Waiver?

Duncan's Chief of Staff Margot Rogers (previously employed by the Gates Foundation) and OII Director Jim Shelton (also previously employed by the Gates Foundation; also previously employed by NSVF and McKinsey & Co.) both filed ethics waivers that allows them unlimited contact with their former employer (Rogers is here, Shelton's is here).

From what I can tell, former NewSchools Venture Fund COO Joanne Weiss - now leading the Race to the Top - has not filed a waiver. Why? I don't know. Maybe she's not required to.

Remember that tidbit about how NSVF was trying to partner with states as part of their RttT application, with NSVF taking a 5% cut in exchange for their services? Hmmm...
