Class Struggle 101:: Thursday, November 27, 2003 ::
Following up on Will's post, here's a little tidbit on some of Barbara Ehrenreich's writing. Although I haven't read Nickel and Dimed yet- I'm sure it will make an excellent reading during the upcoming uber-consuming holidays that follow.

Now I don't know whether to be scared, angry, or just plain annoyed. The latest crap from those in support of George W. "the Edumacation President" Bush involves defunding college international/area studies programs if they're deemed too leftist. At least the Yalies are doing something about it. Vijay Prashad puts things in perspective.

This is a topic that I've been following on and off since my first days of college. I remember at Columbia, there were maybe 2-3 student suicides every year (and add to that 1-2 murders, but that's another subject). I don't know the statistics for Hunter, but I'm sure the phenomenon isn't unknown here either.
