Expansion of tuition benefit should include more flexibility

If the tuition benefit is extended to dependants (Feb. 9 issue), the current requirement that courses taken by employees must be job related should be eliminated. Why shouldn't employees also have the opportunity to enhance their education in any field of study offered at the university?

Ebert commentary appreciated

As a survivor of throat cancer, I read Roger Ebert's recent blog with a heavy heart and tears in my eyes. Mr. Ebert will, indeed, be terribly missed at the Conference on World Affairs. Thank you for publishing your commentary and link to the blog in the Newsletter.
