Could someone just try being honest with students and parents about job outcomes and what it means to get an education and how it affects you if your instructor is struggling to piece together a living wage by teaching 5 different classes at different colleges at the same time?

So many things to say but I just want to point to the example of “Latin American studies” being a useless major in the piece and make sure everyone knows Reading is 70% Latino? Denying Albright the chance to learn Lat Am studies is a kind of affront against the community
![As of the 2020 United States census, Reading had a population of 95,112. Of which, 68.9% were Hispanic/Latino, 18.9% were non-Hispanic White, 8.5% were non-Hispanic Black, 0.7% Asian, 0.1% Native American or Pacific Islander, and 2.9% mixed or other. 32]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:gqllgdedbi7d5fr5augmnvq7/bafkreibnurhzhsir62m7xguu57kmhigzewsd5vlwmm6hqerakfvaq556py@jpeg)

I get why Obama seems to have affection for Zohran and it’s not just that they’re both charismatic, it’s that they both understood as part of their political project that projecting personal decency is something that there is a deep yearning for
