For decades, marketers of consumer goods designed highly adorned packages, deploying bold colors, snazzy text, cartoons and illustrations to seize the attention of shoppers, according to Lan Anh Nu Ton, assistant professor of marketing. Conventional wisdom held that companies needed to do everything in their power to make their products stand out. But recently, there鈥檚 been a move toward simplicity. 鈥淲e found that the preference for simple packaging was due to the fact that pared-down designs sent a subtle yet powerful signal: purity,鈥� Ton said. 鈥淭his happened because the simplicity of the product package made participants more likely to assume that the product contained fewer ingredients, along with fewer preservatives, added colors or artificial flavors.鈥�

The city of Fort Worth is considering an unprecedented settlement with the family of Atatiana Jefferson, who was shot and killed in 2019 by former Fort Worth police officer Aaron Dean. City leaders will vote on the proposed $3.5 million police liability settlement at a future City Council meeting. Settlements like these can stir up concern among police officers, said鈥�Johnny Nhan, associate dean of graduate studies and criminology professor. Patrol officers worry that actions like use of force and high-speed chases could result in a lawsuit that threatens their career, he said.鈥�鈥淧atrol officers in a lot of large cities typically feel they can鈥檛 do much, because it鈥檚 too risky and this has been going on for a long time.

Many Black students at Fort Worth ISD are struggling to read at their grade level. Black students鈥� reading scores lag behind those of most other groups in Fort Worth ISD 鈥� a statistic that parents, experts and district officials have acknowledged. Test scores are important, but that shouldn鈥檛 determine everything, said鈥�Audrey Sorrells, education professor. Sorrells鈥� research focuses on the intersection of culture and disability through the lens of the Black student experience in public education in the U.S. 鈥淭ests have good intentions but unintended consequences,鈥� Sorrells said. 鈥淏ecause if we don鈥檛 really have a good sense of what students value in learning, and how we can bridge their cultures and learning across these different contexts, then it鈥檚 very difficult to get a true picture of a student鈥檚 potential and their expected outcomes.鈥�

Longtime Fort Worth congresswoman Kay Granger will not run for re-election. 鈥淭oday I am announcing that I will not seek re-election to the United States House of Representatives in 2024. Serving my community has been the greatest honor, and I have always fought to improve the lives of my constituents," Granger announced in a press release on her website. James Riddlesperger, political science professor, said while it's not surprising to see someone retire from Congress after serving for so long, it is surprising to see someone voluntarily step away from so much power and influence. 鈥淜ay Granger is one of the three or four most important members in the House of Representatives,鈥� Riddlesperger said. 鈥淔ort Worth has become accustomed to having a very big voice in decision making in U.S. politics.鈥�

She's never really cared whether an idea is a Republican idea or a Democratic idea. She's been in favor of good ideas.鈥�
