Among the highlights of the new editorial: The burden of student loan debt is “crushing” and has caused “lasting, generational damage on the lives of millions of Americans”; However, if President Joe Biden enacts wide-scale student loan cancellation through an executive order, it would be “ legally dubious , economically unsound, politically unfraught, and educationally problematic”; Rather than cancel student loans for everyone, the Biden administration should make higher education more affordable and help student loan borrowers who are the … [Read more...] about Student Loan Cancellation: New York Times Says Canceling Student Loans For Everyone Is A ‘Bad Idea’

NY Gov. Hochul Says Law-Abiding Gun Owners Make People Feel ‘Very Unsafe’
Democratic New York Gov. Kathy Hochul said Friday morning law abiding gun owners make people feel “unsafe” just one day after the Supreme Court overturned a more than century old gun law. Speaking on CBS This Morning, Hochul said the right to carry outside the home makes individuals feel “unsafe” and seemed to insinuate it should not be allowed. “Everybody in America recognizes that there is a problem with gun violence and the people who cheer this, what they say, what they see is, ‘Look there is a problem with gun violence and I, as a law-abiding citizen, want to be able to hold a gun on my person so that I feel safer.’ What do you say to that individual?” the host asked Hochul. “I say that makes everyone else feel very unsafe. We don’t know if you’re provoked, you know, you’re in a bar and someone looks at your girlfriend or your boyfriend the wrong way. There are so many triggers.

The Intersection Of Art, Education And Cultural Awareness
Share to Twitter Share to Linkedin The visual arts sector continues to grow at a rapid rate integrating applications of artistic and technological talent into the entertainment, fashion, and marketing industries across the world. Students are clamoring for more educational opportunities to get a head start on careers that often begin well before cap and gown ceremonies at the hand of doodlers across the nation. With such a profound need for art skills in growing career sectors, it’s often puzzling how art programs are one of the most affected by budget cuts in education. Even with the $263 billion Education Stabilization Fund (ESF) earmarking certain funds for art programs, the upcoming years face future uncertainties for art initiatives.

The Supreme Court Just Struck Down Roe v. Wade. Female Founders Responded With Their Dissent
On June 24, 2022, the Supreme Court struck down the constitutional right to an abortion in its Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization decision. This decision marks the end of 49 years of legal precedent for abortion access, which began with the Roe v. Wade decision, passed in 1973. After the court released its response Friday morning--which has been anticipated for weeks--entrepreneurs responded by voicing their own dissent. Some founders have shared how they will continue to support their employee's access to an abortion, in spite of SCOTUS's decision. "In light of today's devastating Supreme Court decision surrounding Roe v. Wade, it's clear that the responsibility to uphold women's reproductive rights in this country falls increasingly on the private sector," says Alina Vandenberghe, co-founder and co-CEO of the remote, New York City-headquartered software company, Chili Piper , which has employees worldwide.
