If there's a strong case to be made for boosting arts education in public schools, it has to be this: several attendees of the "So You Think You Can Dance" national tour (held at Oracle Arena on Friday) told the Chronicle they were "especially glad for the show at a time when arts education is dwindling in public schools." Public schools must be much worse off than I'd ever imagined if Fox has become our default national art teacher.
