- China Considers Opening Up to Foreign Electric Carmakers. China is discussing a plan to allow foreign carmakers to set up wholly owned electric-vehicle businesses in its free-trade zones in a major revision of a fundamental principle governing the country’s auto industry policy since the 1990s, according to company officials briefed on the matter. The plan, which is subject to change as a final decision hasn’t been made, could be put in place as early as next year, the people said, asking not to be identified as the deliberations are private. If the policy takes effect, it would be a landmark departure from the existing rules, which require foreign automakers to set up joint ventures with local counterparts.

- Georgia Tech president: Unrest mainly caused by “outside agitators”. Georgia Tech president G.P. “Bud” Peterson said “outside agitators” were mainly to blame for the unrest that took place on campus Monday night. Peterson said in a letter to students, faculty and alumni Tuesday that a vigil held for a student shot and killed a Tech police officer Saturday night was disrupted “by several dozen others intent on creating a disturbance and inciting violence. We believe many of them were not part of our Georgia Tech community, but rather outside agitators intent on disrupting the event.” Peterson added they did not honor the memory of the student who was killed, Scout Schultz, with their actions.
