WBEZ
— Should more Illinoisans have a college degree? DD: In my opinion, if you can earn a job-related college degree, you should earn one. But it is extremely important to pick the right major. I should have majored in accounting from the beginning. I was able to earn a college degree because I took college preparatory courses at Crete-Monee High School, got an ACT score of 24, graduated in the upper 20% of my class, and got accepted by UIC in 1966 and then by NIU in 1969. I was able to pay for my UIC and NIU expenses by working for 25 months part-time and for 9 months full-time during three summers delivering mail for the Park Forest Post Office. I lived with my parents in their Crete home for 31 months and at NIU for 16 months. I graduated debt-free with a bachelor’s degree in management and owning a 1969 Dodge Charger SE in August of 1970 even though I was not viewed as being college material.

— Both sides of the aisle in the state legislature have agreed home affordability is an issue for Illinois residents in recent weeks. A new program to help first-time home buyers with down payments was announced by Gov. J.B. Pritzker earlier this week. Republicans pitch other solutions. DD: Back in the good old days, that is, back when I was 24 in 1972, I was able to buy a new townhome ( https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/774-Sunset-Ct-5-University-Park-IL-60484/5451474_zpid/ ). The down payment came from the money I earned working for IRS for 15 months and for a Firestone Store part-time for 18 months and full-time for 7 months before that. During that 25 months, I lived with and helped support my mother and brother in her Crete home. The money I earned also enabled me to buy a new 1972 Corvette in 1971 and to pay for four graduate evening business courses at Loyola in 1972. In today’s dollars, my IRS salary was $56,409/year in 1971 and then $68,999year in 1972.  According to Zillow, the townhome is currently worth $87,100.

AMERICAN THINKER
— The Unfortunate Truth in Gavin Newsom’s Gaffe Regarding the SATs
https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2026/03/the_unfortunate_truth_in_gavin_newsom_s_gaffe_regarding_the_sats.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE:  Black American youth are today disadvantaged, primarily because the explosive growth of the welfare state, implemented by Newsom’s central planning Democrat forebears like Lyndon B. Johnson dating back to the 1960s, has crippled them. “The welfare state,” writes the late, great Walter E. Williams, “has done to black families what slavery couldn’t do, what Jim Crow couldn’t do, what the harshest racism couldn’t do, and that is to destroy the black family.” The practical result of this effort is on display all around us.  The percentage of two-parent black households plummeted in the decades since the 1960s, as subsistence checks provided by daddy-government replaced fathers as the providers for their families. The result has been that many children are growing up in more rudderless, single-parent homes, with young men particularly suffering from the chronic lack of fathers.  This has left millions of black Americans trapped in crime-ridden communities and broken public schools. Yes, black Americans are academically disadvantaged, thanks in many ways to Democrat policy and cultural influences that do nothing to promote excellence in education as a virtue. But, sadly, black American students today lag more than Gavin Newsom seems to know or has ever considered, because the SAT score that he cites is significantly higher than the average SAT score of black students in America today.  And sadly, largely for the aforementioned reasons, that isn’t saying much.)

TIMES HIGHER EDUCATION
— Adaptability main skill graduates need. DD: I adapted big time when I was 43 in 1992. I started taking graduate evening finance courses at IIT, and after taking 14 courses, I earned a master’s degree in finance from IIT in 1997. My Democrat GAO superiors had made it clear that they would never again assign me to audits of IRS. My Democrat GAO superior since 1990 had made it clear that she wanted/demanded that her subordinates have master’s degrees in finance. None of her other subordinates had master’s degrees in finance or worked toward one. Further, I became a certified fraud examiner in 1990, government financial manager in 1994, financial services auditor in 1996, and forensic accountant in 1997. Nevertheless, in 1997, she successfully led the effort to force me to retire when I was 49 in 1997.
