...back to Salinger. Salinger poured his feelings about that relationship into a long short story that was published in the New Yorker two weeks before their wedding. "Franny" is about one of the Glass sisters who realizes that she can't abide the jerk she's dating, a smug young Ivy League academic, and flees to the bathroom of a restaurant where they're eating to seek the refuge of an endlessly repeated prayer...
...their two children, Margaret, who would publish a not entirely flattering memoir about her father in 2000, and Matthew, who became an actor and producer. Salinger would remain a recluse, but he was never inclined to be a hermit. Within a few years of his divorce, he enticed another young woman to join him in exile. In April 1972, the New York Times Magazine published what would be a much-discussed article, "An Eighteen-Year-Old Looks Back on Life." The author was a high school senior named Joyce Maynard.

Students now incur a minimum of an additional $1000 per year cost added on the term bill, and roughly triple that for those who subscribe to Harvard’s Blue...

Additionally, the healthcare plan prevents the young from capitalizing on their good health. Factors, including limiting the amount that companies can charge older patients, preventing the denial of coverage based on preexisting conditions, and “community rating”—or price controls—to limit the ability to offer lower costs to lower risk patients, would likely mean that younger workers would have...
