Powerhouse LA high school football coach mired in controversy fires back at peeved parents: ‘I will not apologize’

The California high school football coach mired in controversy over potential recruiting violations said bluntly this week he has no intentions of apologizing for the way he’s running his program. Just after Westlake head coach Rick Clausen was called out by several of his own players’ parents in a scathing letter to the school, the 44-year-old told the California Post on Thursday he’s not fretting about the complaints one bit. Westlake head coach Rick Clausen instructs the offense during football practice at Westlake High School, Tuesday, Aug. 11, 2026. USA TODAY Network via Reuters Connect “It’s comical, to be honest with you,” Clausen said. “But with what goes on in today’s society, nothing shocks me in any way, shape or form.” Clausen took over a floundering Westlake program in 2025 and immediately turned the team around, going 10-1 in his first year and 7-3 so far in Year Two. The team was 0-10 in 2024. California school district bosses face probe over $70K credit card binge on wine and treats just days before $205M bond vote However, last week, a group of parents sent a memo to Westlake High School stating they’ve enlisted the help of a private investigation company

Op-Ed: New Board of Education Members Must Push Administration to do More With Less

We woke up on Wednesday to the news that the For Stronger Schools slate routed its opponents to secure its place on the school board. I considered writing about how the victory represents a resounding rejection of the Jersey City Education Association’s stranglehold on our public schools, or a rejection of the lack of accountability within the bureaucracy of the Board of Education. But I won’t.

College is an essential time of socialization for many young adults. They are in a new environment where they can meet new people in class, at school events and simply in the hallways of their dorm buildings. Despite all these places to meet people, there are few spaces outside of school life where students can meet up and socialize that do not involve going to parties or bars. That is why Drew students should take advantage of spaces in downtown Madison, N.J.

TIME names the top colleges in New York

Columbia University and Cornell University ranked among the nation's best colleges in TIME Magazine's Best Colleges rankings, released last month. TIME partnered with data research firm Statista for its inaugural report of America’s Best Colleges of 2026-2027 , which ranked colleges that "excel at student outcomes, learning environment and attractiveness to students," according to the publication. Schools with historically strong STEM programs ranked high on the list, including the top two universities: Stanford University (No. 1), known for its startup culture and connection to Silicon Valley, and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (No. 2), a patent powerhouse, according to TIME. New York's highest-ranked university, Columbia University in New York City, is best known for its Core Curriculum and strength in the humanities and social sciences, including its graduate programs in journalism, business, law and international affairs, according to Oriel Admissions. Cornell University in Ithaca is known for its focus on engineering, agriculture and life sciences, as well as hotel administration. Although Cornell, like Columbia, is an Ivy League school, some of its colleges are state-supported contract colleges , which offer lower tuition to New York residents. Other Cornell colleges are endowed and rely on private support, according to the university.
