Quick Shout Out to AlterNet

I want to publicly thank AlterNet for reposting my piece about the Occupy Wall Street Movement and how it's spreading across the country. It is much appreciated!

Help All Education Matters return to D.C. in early November! Pitch in $5 today. 


Also, I am writing a book about the student lending crisis. Would you read it? If so, lemme know in the comments!
