I will miss the community I cultivated on here, along with all that I learned, the perspectives I gained, the people I met, and the opportunities to share. I remain hopeful that circumstances may evolve, and if so, I'll be back! But, for now, on to other platforms. (END)

We at @BarrFdn will miss Pat, but we are all excited for him, what this opportunity represents, and mostly for what his leadership will bring to the Commonwealth. Congratulations to the Governor-Elect on this great appointment.
I'm appointing Dr. Patrick Tutwiler as Secretary of the Executive Office of Education. Dr. Tutwiler will bring decades of experience in public education and a record of centering equity and collaboration in his work. Our kids need results, and I know Dr. Tutwiler will deliver.

Thanks @mbobbitt & @emilyruddock for this important perspective on the imperative for public funding of the arts.

We believe an increase in public and private financial support for the arts will drive growth and positive changes that are palpable.
