Posted onJuly 27, 2017February 7, 2019 By David Perry

NEW POST (please read and share!): If we're going to do mediocre partial measures on student debt relief, can we at least look at a real number? I wrote:

"If the goal is to help people who go to public universities, then let's try to peg this relief to the actual numbers we have on debt from public universities. Here's what I can find.

'Among those who borrow, the average debt at graduation is $25,921 — or $6,480 for each year of a four-year degree at a public university. Among all public university graduates, including those who didn’t borrow, the average debt at graduation is $16,300.'

So $25,921 would be great, because then we can peg future relief to that "average debt" number. But $16,300 would also be great, because it's bigger than the arbitrary 10K."

I'm beginning to think about Human Resource Management (exciting, I know!), specifically Bereavement Leave, in a post-Covid world. The time to start planning is now.

Two questions about the 1/6 coup attempt. Please read and share.

1) Who removed the panic buttons from Rep. Ayanna Pressley's office?

2) Who sent Facebook messages to militia members detailing the locations of congressmembers during the attack?

There are lots of questions that need answering about the assault, but these two concrete ones will help reveal the extent to which there was or was not a conspiracy.
