How is this conclusion generalizable, if at all, to our college students and what role do we play in this, if anything?]]> Wed, 5 Jul 2017 15:02:15 GMT https://www.glacuho.org/forums/posts.aspx?topic=1369598 https://www.glacuho.org/forums/posts.aspx?topic=1369598 Wed, 5 Jul 2017 16:51:09 GMT https://www.glacuho.org/forums/posts.aspx?topic=1371751 https://www.glacuho.org/forums/posts.aspx?topic=1371751 Fri, 14 Jul 2017 15:04:39 GMT https://www.glacuho.org/forums/posts.aspx?topic=1372378 https://www.glacuho.org/forums/posts.aspx?topic=1372378
Those of us who are not already stuck on a hamster wheel and/or treading water should try to be advocates for our students.

A good example is the ACA and the ramifications for our students who have jobs. In the past, students could work full-time hours during the summers and save up something to spend on college in the fall. After employers cut back on hiring full-time hours because they do not want to offer health insurance, instead of having one full-time summer job, students now try to balance two or three jobs at 15 to 20 hours each during the summers. They certainly do not have the time to call their representatives about really anything. ]]> Mon, 17 Jul 2017 23:16:40 GMT
