  • John B. King Jr. On Inspiring Students In His New Book 'Teacher by Teacher'
    2025/05/08
    John B. King Jr. has worked in nearly every role an educator can — teacher, principal, administrator, higher education chancellor, and education secretary (under Barack Obama).

    Some big changes for education in America could be coming. The Trump administration has signaled its intention to close the Department of Education. That could have far-reaching ripple effects on parents, teachers, and, most importantly, students.

    We discuss what it takes for teachers to impact students' lives for the better, and what can teachers do to steer them to success in school and in life.

  • Federal Student Loan Repayments Are Due, Again
    2025/05/06
    Over five million US borrowers are in default, with their loan 270 days past due. Four million haven't made payments in 90 days. Now, the five-year pause on collections for defaulted student loans ended Monday.

    The original pause goes back to a 2020 pandemic-era policy, but it was extended multiple times during the Biden administration.

    For those in default, the collection of that debt may mean dipping into paychecks, tax refunds, and social security benefits.

    These collections are being restarted weeks after the Department of Education has seen its staff cut by half.

    Borrowers are also dealing with glitching and outages on financial aid websites.

    We answer your questions about student loans and hear why so many borrowers are considered "seriously delinquent."|
