This discussion will focus on the relationship between race and the media. We've curated a list of titles that address how race is portrayed in stories, representation in the newsroom, and why this subject matters. Pick one from our list or read your own!
Public Service Loan Forgiveness: The Time is Now – Tuesday, Mar. 1, 6:30-7:30 p.m.
The PSLF program grants tax-free loan forgiveness of borrowers' entire federal student loan balance after making 120 monthly payments while working for a "qualifying" employer. The U.S. Department of Education recently announced major changes to the Public Service Loan Forgiveness (PSLF) program which temporarily relaxed requirements allowing many people to receive credit for past payments if certain criteria apply. The relief is time-sensitive with a deadline of October 31st, 2022. If you work for a 501(c)3 nonprofit, the government or military, this is a session you won’t want to miss! Presented by Jason Anderson, CPA, CFP, Senior Consultant at Gradmetrics.
