    Representative Claims Credit Where None is Due

     The claim "The Minnesota TRiO Association honored Congressman Kline in 2008 for his unwavering support of low-income, first generation, and disabled students." He votes against TRiO every time. MN TRiO only gives him awards to try and *get* his support.

    Questioning Someone Else's Debt
    dmegivern
    by dmegivern  10-1-2008    10
     I almost wish dulios had not told me about the snarky comments on Clipmarks related to my indebtedness. It's called student loans. Since when are they supposed to be embarrassing? Just because my parents could not pay for me to go to college, I am supposed to be ashamed? And of course, without child support or any contributions, I raised my two youngest siblings for seven years. Sometimes I had to borrow more money in student loans to support them. I was 25 and in graduate school with custody of my 13 year old sister, and the next year getting custody of my 12 year old brother. Where else was I supposed to get money? My story is in the clipped book as Chapter 7.

     It looks like the increases in financial aid for college students are in jeopardy. Sad. Our students here were actually feeling relieved.

     I honestly believe that conservative rationale and thinking is less complex and evolved than progressive thought. It makes sense to me that places where highly intelligent people gather will therefore tend to be liberal.

    Neo Cons Warp the Meaning of Academic Freedom

     I was harassed by a neo-con student when I was a professor. She kept changing the subject from actual class material. The first day she talked about prayer in school (not a topic covered in this course), when I was trying to just go over the syllabus. Most frustrating, she had zero critical thinking skills, dominated the class, and angered the other students.
