Education Writers Association
Education is a purposeful activity directed at achieving certain aims, such as transmitting knowledge or fostering skills and character traits. These aims may include the development of understanding, rationality, kindness, and honesty. Various researchers emphasize the role of critical thinking in order to distinguish education from indoctrination. Some theorists require that education results in an improvement of the student while others prefer a value-neutral definition of the term. In a slightly different sense, education may also refer, not to the process, but to the product of this process: the mental states and dispositions possessed by educated people.

The Philadelphia Bulletin
The ''Philadelphia Bulletin'' was a daily evening newspaper published from 1847 to 1982 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. It was the largest circulation newspaper in Philadelphia for 76 years and was once the largest evening newspaper in the United States. Its widely known slogan was: "In Philadelphia, nearly everybody reads ''The Bulletin''." Describing the ''Bulletin''s style, publisher William L. McLean once said: "I think the ''Bulletin'' operates on a principle which in the long run is unbeatable. This is that it enters the reader's home as a guest. Therefore, it should behave as a guest, telling the news rather than shouting it." As ''Time'' magazine later noted: "In its news columns, the ''Bulletin'' was solid if unspectacular. Local affairs were covered extensively, but politely. Muckraking was frowned upon." History 1847 to 1895 ''The Bulletin'' was first published by Alexander Cummings on April 17, 1847, as ''Cummings’ Evening Telegraphic Bulletin''.''Cummings’ E ...
