...opportunity to deal with Ford directly as opposed dealing with the government is at the core of Ford's decisions. With its sales down nearly 50%, there is no way for it to make it to the end of the year with its current debt structure. What the company is not saying is that it may not be able to make it another six months without outside help.

...they may find themselves in classes that are strikingly similar to ones taken by their older peers. The Standing Committee on General Education has recently approved more courses to fill out the eight Gen Ed categories. But currently, the vast majority are drawn from departmental courses and the Core curriculum, with very few newly-designed courses made specifically to suit Gen Ed categories.
