@BetoORourke we love the idea of wiping out public school teacher student loans. How about Community and Technical College teachers? We make less and less every year for more and more work. We love what we do or we wouldn't do it. We could use a break too.

AMTEC is partnering with @OCTC_KCTCS on an @NSF project to identify barriers for women in skilled manufacturing trades and to develop solutions to overcome those barriers. One thing that has been discovered is flexible delivery is a MUST for these women.
