On January 26, USC Annenberg dean Geoffrey Cowan and USC Rossier School of Education dean Karen Symms Gallagher hosted the Los Angeles premiere of the PBS documentary, First to Worst. The film, produced by former NPR and PBS education reporter John Merrow, "chronicles the rise and fall Californias public school system, the largest in the nation and home to one of every eight American students." Following the film, Merrow, Gallagher and William Celis, former education reporter at The New York Times, participated in a roundtable discussion led by Martin Kaplan, USC Annenberg's associate dean and director of the Norman Lear Center.
