Yes, we considered interviewing President Levine, but were focusing on public universities. I was a freshman there your senior year.

.@paulsolman I just watched your @NewsHour segment on attending college, its costs, availability of work, etc. Have you checked in with Brandeis University & its new curriculum approach relating to these issues? If not, you should. I admit I’m an alumnus from ancient times, 1963.

[Paul Solman @paulsolman]

For teachers who may be reading this exchange, I am still available to visit classrooms, especially high school classrooms in economics, by Zoom. A journalism classrooms as well.

Hi @paulsolman it's been some years, but I still think fondly of your visits to my classroom (virtually) in Warsaw and Beijing. I'm glad to see you're still at it

I was watching your segment recently and was wondering about your tie. Is it a brown trout? Looks a little fishy

[Paul Solman @paulsolman]

Those were fun, Kevin.

The tie: a collaboration of sorts with Paul Klee, moving a tie-shaped template over a Klee image. Have ordered a few different ones via Zazzle.

Ah, voice recognition again hard of hearing: Renewed push to sign on high schools and hs teachers or principles for what's been called "America's best kept secret" and the best antidote to polarization in the country: the American Exchange Project. https://t.co/LilKHYfRCh

[Paul Solman @paulsolman]

Renewed push to side on high schools and high school teachers are principles for what's been called "America's best kept secret" and the best antodote to polarization in the country: the American Exchange Project. https://t.co/qPGFxKgD3T

Thanks, Paul. While your story is about USA, there are lessons to apply in Canada as well. A few years ago, I dealt with bailiff here who plays dirty, knowingly putting my house up for sale without serving my bank, nor did realtor he works with follow law on listing my property.

Just interesting.

@LibertyHour @NewsHour @CharlesKupchan @paulsolman @PBS Isn’t this only relevant if they would have accepted the offer? That’s the value of the gold today, but that doesn’t necessarily mean Greenland’s value has increased by the same amount.

[Paul Solman @paulsolman]

And more than $10 billion in silver.

[Liberty Hour @LibertyHour]

@NewsHour @CharlesKupchan @paulsolman Here's some fun math for the
@PBS @NewsHour person using the official BLS inflation calculator for the Greenland tidbit numbers. Yes, $100 million in 1946 is $1.8 billion inflation adjusted dollars, but adjusted for the offer's price in gold, it's $13.3 billion!

[Paul Solman @paulsolman]

Meant material gains, but perhaps should have added the adjective.

[Don Wolt @tlowdon]

@NewsHour @paulsolman Please explain why you frame mothers leaving the workforce to stay home & raise their young children as "erasing gains."

[Paul Solman @paulsolman]

It's detestable to respond politely to your tweet?

[Buddy the cat @BuddythecatX]

@paulsolman @NewsHour I am going to point out, once again, that this thread has been edited by PBS or Paul Solman, a practice in line with PBS's techniques, which are, in my opinion, detestable.

[Paul Solman @paulsolman]

The more I think about it, the more I tend to disagree with you about this. I don't think there's any judgment implied when most people use this term, even though I don't use it. It could just be every day people as opposed to those who think they're high and mighty, no?

[Buddy the cat @BuddythecatX]

@paulsolman @NewsHour Well a lot of people use it; I don't think they understand what they are revealing about their worldviews.

[Paul Solman @paulsolman]

@BuddythecatX @NewsHour Ah, I just went back and read the introduction. That's where the term is used. But it isn't a term I remember using and I certainly didn't use it in the story that followed the introduction.

[Paul Solman @paulsolman]

@BuddythecatX @NewsHour I still don't quite see your point, but the fact is we didn't use the term in our script or even in the introduction to the story.

[Paul Solman @paulsolman]

@BuddythecatX @NewsHour Honest question: why is it detestable?

[Paul Solman @paulsolman]

@Petei123 Our operations are run by a 26-year Marine Lt Col who helped run Special Forces deployments. Our chief of staff: career Navy officer. We're in far more Red states than Blue. Almost every kid from the American exchange program says they're grateful because "I live in a bubble."

[Paul Solman @paulsolman]

This has nothing to do with DEI, Pete (is it?). We're lowercase D:diversity of every kind. If you watch the videos linked on our website, from places including FOX&friends, you'll see that there's no agenda besides getting kids to learn about the America outside their oen bubble.

[SCIENCE-FACTS @Petei123]

@paulsolman @NewsHourExtra @NewsHour 😄After 60 yrs of DEI, are you that naive?
Lib Media-Educ trainings are layered with WashDC/NYC/Inner City bias.
We all know what Kory Loyola means, 1) She'll chose the questions, 2) Frame them for her benefit and then 3) We listen to her ignorant explanation.
Here is Science>

[Paul Solman @paulsolman]

I did stories about both a few years ago but you're right, we should've mentioned what's happened to their price in comparison. So I just looked it up and it seems both of them have risen in price by noticeable amounts but not nearly as much as beef. In the past 12 months.

[Paul Solman @paulsolman]

@Petei123 @NewsHourExtra @NewsHour But don't we all have more in common than divide us? And shouldn't we all visit parts of America outside our own bubbles? That is quite literally all that the American exchange project is about. Not one single particle of propaganda
