I agree 100% on the need for a college education in today's world. I have a couple of suggestions for those who have children nearing that point in their lives. First of all, check out your local community colleges. Most will have an arrangement (we call it 2+2) with a local 4 yr college in which all of the credits will transfer directly from the CC. CC's are much, much cheaper and are a good transition for those students who may not have done as well in HS as they would have liked. It is also a cheaper way to find out if college is right for them. I would not recommend a CC for very strong students as it would not benefit them. Secondly, make sure that your children pay for a portion of their education. This gives them a reason to do well. When my son went away for his 1st year at SUNY IT (Utica, NY) his mother and I split the bill between us. He decided he would rather party than go to class. He has since graduated from our local CC and will be going FT to SUNY Plattsburgh in the fall on his own dime. It's amazing how much more serious he has been since he has been paying the bill.
Back to the OP--the only new volume we have seen from this are the VA meds, which are all A8.
