SUMMARY:Are Public Schools Becoming Constitution-Free Zones?
DESCRIPTION:Race\, sex\, religion\, crime\, liberty\, patriotism\, equality. The Supreme Court’s treatment of these incendiary topics has indelibly shaped public education and students’ constitutional rights around the country. From intentionally drawing school districts to be more racially diverse\, corporal punishment\, and whether undocumented immigrants should have access to free public education–these rulings have lasting impacts both inside and outside of the schoolhouse gate. \nJustin Driver\, author of “The Schoolhouse Gate: Public Education\, the Supreme Court\, and the Battle for the American Mind” is an award-winning Robert R. Slaughter Professor of Law at Yale. Driver maintains that since the 1970s\, the Supreme Court has regularly abdicated responsibility in protecting students’ rights\, risking transforming public schools into Constitution-free zones and in turn\, jeopardizing our basic constitutional order. It begs us to ask how American public schools have become hotbeds for cultural anxieties and national identity–turning classrooms into incubators for constitutional interpretation. \nJoin us\, in-person at the City Club as Justin Driver examines the power of the Supreme Court inside the American school system.

SUMMARY:The Great Age Reboot: Cracking the Longevity Code for a Younger Tomorrow
DESCRIPTION:It seems like 50 is the new 30\, and standard aging milestones once considered the norm in prior generations are now occurring later in life. With new scientific breakthroughs and cutting-edge technology\, the human lifespan is expected to continue to increase. \n“The Great Age Reboot: Cracking the Longevity Code for a Younger Tomorrow” by Michael Roizen\, M.D.\, Albert Ratner\, and Peter Linneman\, Ph.D.\, takes a deep dive into the trends that have led to medical breakthroughs–like stem-cell rejuvenation and CRISPr/CAS9 gene editing. The authors suggest over the next decade\, living to 100 or even 120 will become more common. This increased longevity is being called the next major soci­etal dis­rup­tor–as longer lifespans will change not only our own lives\, but also our cul­ture\, and dramatically shift views on aging. Are we ready? \nDr. Roizen and Albert Ratner will join us in-person at the City Club\, with Dr. Peter Linneman joining virtually to discuss how we can prepare for this longer\, healthier future.

SUMMARY:Answering the Call for Crisis Care Change
DESCRIPTION:When our loved ones\, neighbors\, or those we serve are in emotional distress\, or experiencing a mental health crisis\, there are moments when a response from a therapeutic professional may be the best option. The recent increase of behavioral health issues\, particularly among children and young adults has sounded alarms\, and communities nationwide are at a tipping point after two years of ongoing health crises\, racial\, and civil unrest. \nIn July\, the national 988 crisis hotline for mental health or addiction response was launched as a first step towards a transformed crisis care system in America. Mental health experts and law enforcement leaders think this could be the public policy change that brings a new era of crisis response. \nHow is Cuyahoga County positioned to usher in this new option? And when looking at the continuum of care in behavioral health\, how can we best match the right response to our community’s need? \nJoin us at the City Club to hear from a panel of local experts on how the full crisis response system is pursuing alternatives to traditional police response\, like care response\, diversion\, co-responder teams of police with mental health workers\, and\, of course\, 988.

SUMMARY:Leadership trip: Berlin
DESCRIPTION:CLC is partnering with Leadership Berlin to deliver a week of powerful programming punctuated by a few fun touristy experiences. The experience will be powerful and the connections and idea generation with our Berlin counterparts will be impactful and will likely yield positive collaborations for our community. Participants will engage in a wide variety of topics\, from German politics\, immigration\, and education to the prison system\, economy\, international relations\, and more! There is an optional trip at the end of the week to the Oktoberfest in Munich. \nThe draft agenda remains in flux as Leadership Berlin is eager to craft a trip experience that reflects participants’ interests. \nThe estimated costs are: \n\nHotel $2\,000 for the week (single occupancy – Sunday through Saturday) at the 25 Hour Berlin Bikini Hotel. If one is sharing a room\, each pays approximately $1\,000 for the week.\nFees $2\,500 (includes ground transportation and most meals).\nOptional add-on trip to Oktoberfest approximately $260.\nAirfare (varies depending upon Berlin or Munich arrival/return). Airfares are around $900 roundtrip. Currently\, the best fares are out of Chicago or New York.\n\nContact Marianne Crosley (440-552-9385) with questions and to indicate your interest.

SUMMARY:2022 Cuyahoga County Executive Debate
DESCRIPTION:It has been eight years since Cuyahoga county has had an open seat in the County Executive’s office and 12 years since voters approved a reform to create the office of county executive. The charter specifically called for “effective and accountable leadership”\, “an improved focus on equity for all our communities and citizens”\, economic competitiveness\, and “significant taxpayer savings by streamlining and eliminating unnecessary elected offices.” \nThis year\, two candidates are vying for the County Executive office\, which serves the 1.2 million residents of the county with a budget of roughly $1.5 billion. \nChris Ronayne\, Democrat\, began his career in public service with the County Planning Commission\, and later served as the Planning Director for the City of Cleveland. Most recently\, he has served as President of University Circle\, Inc. \nLee Weingart\, Republican\, served as County Commissioner in Cuyahoga County from 1995 to 1997. He has held a variety of positions in the private sector\, founding an advocacy and lobbying firm in 2002\, which he continues to run today. \nJoin us for a debate in this vitally important local race\, which will feature questions coming directly from voters like you asking about issues and topics that are most important to you and your communities.

SUMMARY:Intel's Impact: Mapping Ohio's Next Phase of Economic Growth
DESCRIPTION:The announcement of a $20 billion semi-conductor manufacturing facility in suburban Columbus sent a shock wave across the state and region. The largest single economic investment in the state’s history\, Intel is poised to change the state’s economy in lasting ways. The construction project alone is creating thousands of jobs and growth for firms whose steel or products will be instrumental in building and outfitting the plant. Long term\, though\, Intel’s manufacturing presence in Central Ohio can be a foundation for growth for companies\, both upstream and downstream in the supply chain. \nFor Ohio\, the question is how to leverage this investment and existing industrial and commercial assets to create as many jobs and as much economic growth and opportunity as possible. Join us for a conversation led by Bill Koehler\, CEO of Team NEO that plots the next phase of Ohio’s economic growth.

SUMMARY:Looking Back\, Looking Forward: Reflections on County Government Reform
DESCRIPTION:It has now been over a decade of Cuyahoga County government reform since voters replaced corruption scandals with an elected county executive and 11-member county council. And soon\, voters will also decide on a new county executive after eight years of leadership under Armond Budish. \nThe county government serves 1.2 million residents with a roughly $1.5 billion budget. The government reform was met with promises of streamlined services\, equity\, and accountability. Still\, the charter has seen its fair share of tinkering at the ballot box over the years\, and challenges and opportunities have revealed themselves. Has the reform upheld its original promise? \nJoin us at the City Club in a conversation led by William Tarter\, Jr. with the Center for Community Solutions as we reflect on over a decade of county government reform\, and discuss what lies ahead.
