Student ⁦@SalemState⁩ University says college dreams are becoming nightmares because of student loan debt. Students face hunger and homelessness, delays in graduation because of cuts in faculty. #Cherish #DebtFreeFuture #FundOurFuture

[Massachusetts Teachers Association @massteacher]

Everyone I know is working three jobs to stay in school. It’s not making us stronger — it’s just hard. — Meghan DeVeau, @SalemState sophomore, who called for the expansion of MassGrant ++ scholarship to cover the full unmet need for the lowest-income students.

MTA @Massteacher President Najimy & VP Max Page prepare to speak about #Cherish Act to the ⁦@MassDHE⁩ Board of Higher Ed #FundOurFuture

[Suzanne Lee Wall (Sue) @Wallski775]

Faculty ⁦@BridgeStateU⁩ Maria Hegbloom speaks ⁦@MassDHE⁩ abt effects of 31% decline in state funding: students w disabilities cannot access advising because of non #ADAcompliant aging buildings. MA = 2nd fastest growing state for student debt. Time for #CherishAct!

[Suzanne Lee Wall (Sue) @Wallski775]

Senator Jo Comerford, prime sponsor of the #CherishAct thanks ⁦@massteacher⁩ & #FundOurFuture coalition for organizing support for quality public higher ed

[Massachusetts Teachers Association @massteacher]

We need debt relief for #maedu college and U. graduates who go to work in public schools. Pittsfield T Tyler Ramsay had to turn down teaching jobs because his student debt made it impossible for him to work & live in districts with high housing costs. #FundOurFutureMA #mapoli

[PHENOM @MassPHENOM]

Even the Boston Globe is ashamed of how @SpeakerDeLeo and Senate President @KarenSpilka are treating students and workers in public higher education. The Senate is debating their budget this week, and it’s time to pay up! #FundOurFuture #DebtFreeFuture https://t.co/oa7c2ZXWDu

Against all odds, the real ❤️ of a college education — the bond borne of shared intellectual exploration between teachers & curious students, between curious students & each other — remains intact at every state university know. https://t.co/vAxylTXFRE #maedu #fundOurFuture

[Bridgewater MSCA @MSCAatBSU]

With legislators like this, who needs enemies?

[MEJA @massedjustice]

Paul Sagan is OUT as Baker's chair of the state Board of Education, a role in which he broke campaign finance law to funnel nearly $500,000 to pro-charter Yes on 2 in 2016. He is being replaced as chair by Katherine Craven who is (surprisingly) not a hedge fund manager.

[PHENOM @MassPHENOM]
