Good morning. It's Thursday, Oct. 19. We begin with our "Schools Without Rules'' project, which takes a look at the troubled history of Agape Christian Academy, a private school in Pine Hills, and the case of a principal who shut down one private school after allegedly abusing a student, only to open another.

In Gainesville, white nationalist Richard Spencer's speech at the University of Florida is expected to draw plenty of protesters -- as well as a major police presence.

And finally, if you are interested in receiving editorials and columns in your inbox (it's free), we invite you to learn more about The Sentinel Insight Newsletter by clicking here.
