Bloomberg's Pick Gets Waiver to Be New York City Schools Chancellor

Cathleen P. Black, the publishing executive picked by Mayor
Michael R. Bloomberg to be the next New York City schools
chancellor, cleared a final hurdle on Monday as the state
granted her the waiver she needs to take office.

David M. Steiner, said that Ms. Black's inexperience in
education would be offset by the appointment of a chief
academic officer to serve by her side.

The city agreed to create that position on Friday after Dr.
Steiner expressed serious doubts about Ms. Black's readiness
for the job.
