Isn't it a bit conflict-of-interest if Carol Goss' husband bids and wins a risk management contract with DPS?

What is the point of having the ability to award contracts if you don't award them to family? I mean civil service is all about how it can benefit you and yours right?

Why is that a conflict of interest? Skillman doesn't own DPS.

jhart...to get anyone to logically respond, you have to explain who Carol Goss is, who Tom Goss is and the connection between the Skillman Foundation and Detroit Public Schools.

Well, it wouldn't be a conflict of interest since Carol Goss and the Skillman Foundation are fairly pro-charter schools. However it might be that the DPS wouldn't be served well by the husband of the E.D. of the Skillman Foundation.
