Seems like good things happening at Rhodes:
Opened a new $30m science center last August:

And President Hass announced during her recent inauguration new urban education master’s program (“armed with $8.5 million from donors, Rhodes will embark on a new master’s degree program in urban education that in a few years is expected to produce 100 teachers annually to teach in Shelby County Schools”) and a new Turley Memphis Center to strengthen “community partnerships focusing on urban education, the arts and social change, neighborhood and community development and youth empowerment and justice.”
