In Volume 3, I don't think you can avoid the Graduate Schools of Education, which have an an absolute monopoly on the public school K-12 teacher preparation pipeline as well as on education "research."
These are significant cash cows for the universities because they offer zero dollars' worth of tuition scholarships for their 1-year programs, since either everybody gets a student load or they get loan forgiveness from all states where they fulfill their teaching commitment.
This is also where all of the ethnic studies "research" gets performed.
K-12 education is a completely different problem space because it is governed by state legislatures, lobbyists, and teachers unions. THAT definitely belongs in Volume 2.
I'd advise against that. These are two completely distinct problem spaces.
Graduate Schools of Education are engaged in knowledge poisoning BOTH at the level of academia, where their tenure-track professors engage in what no sane academic would recognize as research, AND at the level of teacher training , which has become a political activist arena of indoctrination, almost entirely dissociated from their "research."
If you don't look at GSEs in terms of academia, you will never crack the code.

Thanks, that is super helpful
Might actually go in Volume 2, where Education is listed as a 'player' in the AZ complex ... can work that out later

GSEs are monstrous perversions of academia.
