Many
veterans turn to counselling to move from battlefield to boardroom
by LEAH EICHLER, The Globe and Mail | 03/10
For those making the transition into a new career or industry, mastering corporate-speak can feel be daunting, as they sweat to express how your previous life prepared you to “navigate matrixes,” “ramp up productivity” and successfully
“ideate” on complex issues. It’s enough to drive a language lover mad.

Initiatives
to Counteract Childhood Poverty with Holistic Education
by Staff Writer, TRIB+EDU The Texas Tribune | 03/10
Rather than stick to the typical strategy of relying on schools to act as the sole countermeasure to childhood poverty, two K-12 initiatives are setting out to popularize a more holistic approach. The first program is partnering
with six cities nationwide to link public agencies and services to schools, families and communities. The second initiative targets low-income students and advocates for interventions like early-childhood learning, after-school and summer programs. (Education

by Eric Hoover, The Chronicle of Higher Education | 03/07
This past Saturday, more than a quarter-million high-school students woke up early to take the revamped SAT. The College Board had promised to deliver a fairer, more-straightforward test, and plenty of people surely will debate
