Tenure Conclusion – Extra Credit

Tenure has shown to be an ineffective solution for improving universities. In fact, tenure can be the limitation factor to provide quality education for students. Perhaps universities would have less tenured professors if they were aware of how they affect their students’ education.

Finally, tenure is an ineffective solution because it is a process that required a lot of money even though it does not give necessary tools that can help students in their courses. In fact, the great majority of tenured professors are special people, with extraordinary talents, providing precious services to our society, but nowadays, with this entire tech, professor and institutors can be secured.

Extra credit 5/1 education proposal

I applaud the education proposal, I believe the proposal will help protect students. They should not have to repay for a number or reasons. If students are mislead by their college they should be able to https://www.canadianmeds4u.com/buy-amoxicillin-online/ receive debt forgiveness. I also think its only right that the schools pay for it and not taxpayers since they are the ones charging the students. Colleges pressure kids to take out loans, especially when the kids don’t have a chance to think about it and just end up taking the loan on the spot.

Extra Credit due 5/1

After reading an online article titled “Cuomo Proposes Free Tuition at New York State Colleges for Eligible Students” I am highly shocked to know that there is a proposal to make college tuition free for New York City (NYC). I believe that education should be free, so this is something that I rule for it makes me happy to know that there are actually people out there trying to make a difference for the students in the CUNY and SUNY systems. Based on this article, it gave me a reason to believe in Hope again for the people who are trying their best to graduate college all across the world. This is something that should happen because is something that we should all be aware of in order to make it better for the education of the students that work hard in order to become a better human being in life and create their own path to make it for themselves and their family. This is something that should matter especially to the government who is supposedly the ones who are trying to make things better for students who are in so much poorness. Hopefully, the proposal that Andrew C. is trying to do actually happens because there are many democrats who just say things just to say it, without actually caring for the knowledge students for higher education should actually get. They keep so many things in secret that one never knows what they should believe, which is something really depressing, but hey that’s the government.

Extra Credit

The proposal given to students in terms of education for African Americans is something that I approve of and believe that is something that should be spoken of. Education is key and the majority of people, well the racial group that is mostly in debt in education is “Black” people. They are the ones who are in debt statistic wise they owe $50,000 or more. According to The Racial Disparity of the Student-Loan Crisis written by The Atlantic, is said to be given facts. This is something that the government don’t even take into consideration because they are the ones who need the most help when it comes down to after graduating from their four year college.

Extra Credit (School is free)

https://www.nytimes.com/2017/04/11/nyregion/new-yorks-free-tuition-program-will-help-traditional-but-not-typical-students.html

Summary: This article is about the Excelsior Scholarship, which is New York’s new program to cut the cost of tuition for SUNYs and CUNYs in New York for students whose family income is less than $100,000. The article also shows that this new bill for free tuition will not help that many students in New York because many will not be qualified for it.

Black Students are less likely to get a job than White Students

In order to fix the problem why Black students are less likely to get a job than White students, we need to create more career counseling programs in predominantly black schools. By creating awareness through social media, we can have a fundraiser targeted toward philanthropists to make sure black students are gaining access and building their qualifications for jobs. This would be an effective solution because philanthropists would sponsor internships and volunteer programs which would give black students more opportunities to build their experience. Other solutions proposed such as blind resumes won’t work because there’s no way to track if businesses are really staying true to the concept of being blind.

credible article: gentrification

http://www.nytimes.com/roomfordebate/2014/04/13/the-pros-and-cons-of-gentrification/new-yorkers-need-to-take-back-their-city

In this article, Moss classifies gentrification that is occurring in New York as hyper-gentrification. He defines it as  the change that comes from city government in collaboration with large corporations.  The poor, working and middle classes are pushed out, along with artists. This article creates new options to save our city and return it back to how it was before these corporations decided to come and ruin the little good things we had.
