Thanks to President B-Rock, the use and research of stem cells has become much more readily available. Is that why he won the Nobel Peace Prize? I mean, that’s pretty much all he’s done so far… but whatever. As a result, researchers at many colleges and universities are able to do the work they had [...]
As suggested in an article by the AP today, college students are becoming increasingly disenchanted with Obama’s presidency. This is precisely what I was afraid of during his candidacy. People become very hopeful and are disappointed when a politician doesn’t fulfill all their dreams in 100 days. I don’t agree with it, but that’s the [...]
Inside Higher Ed reports on the Obama ideas for student loans to be backed by the U.S. Government. There are some in the District that are moving against Obama on this issue, it seems.
Community colleges are looking to take a few extra steps towards their credibility. The Examiner takes a look at a few examples of how this is all going down. Perhaps they want to give more students better opportunities after the POTUS gave them all a glowing recommendation.

After the madness of the Obama visit to and commencement speech at Notre Dame, college administrators and educators are attempting to discuss the issues of abortion and the rift between Catholic educators and the Church. Though no dates have been made solid yet, the educators will meet with Church Bishops hopefully before their meeting in Baltimore [...]
Yesterday, President Obama was a speaker at Notre Dame’s graduation, but many of the conservative groups on campus very vocally opposed his role in the ceremony — due to his stance on abortion. MSNBC describes the scene:
More than half held signs, some declaring “Shame on Notre Dame” and “Stop Abortion Now” to express their anger [...]
President Obama plans on being the commencement speaker at Notre Dame University for Spring graduation. Like his politics or not, I would be quite amazed to have the sitting President be my speaker. Unfortunately, not everyone feels that way. As we all know, Notre Dame is steeped in deep Roman Catholic tradition. It then comes [...]
It’s Final Four time, with the 2009 edition featuring UNC vs. Villanova and Michigan State vs. UConn. Those teams are headed to Detroit, a city clearly booming at the moment, which sort of begs the question, “Why Detroit?” But whatever.
