CHICAGO — The state senator who led a school boycott to protest underfunded Chicago schools cut it short after two days and said Thursday he will be talking to Gov. Rod Blagojevich soon to discuss solutions. Sen. James Meeks said hundreds of students participated in the boycott’s second day. Although the number was only a fraction of the district’s 400,000 students, Meeks said it was successful in publicizing the funding problem.
