Letter to the Editor (Idaho Statesman):
I for one would like to better understand Joseph Scott’s personal interest in contributing $250,000 to EVI. What if there are conflicts of interest with outside educational software entities? Wouldn’t an “oops-too-late” discovery of inappropriately using voters for personal gain discredit Luna’s laptop program and risk later confusion in our school districts? Would not it be more prudent to say no to Luna’s proposition #3 until these surprise EVI contributors and possible interests are more thoroughly vetted? Rather than the whole thing ram-rodded through?
