The Gazette reflects on graduation speeches and the role of students in shaping a troubled world. It notes global conflicts, discrimination, poverty, and environmental issues while urging graduates to apply classroom lessons to uplift life and inspire others, honoring parents and families who witness their growth.
David Frankel of Iowa State University critiques a new bankruptcy reform that creates a means test, restricts Chapter 7, and imposes credit counseling. The proposal encourages gaming the system, limits homestead exemptions, and could slow innovation and economic growth while raising costs for debtors.
The measure tightens bankruptcy rules to stop abuses by those who exploit prior laws, requires credit counseling and an approved educational course, and shifts more liability to attorneys. It faces debate over access, costs, and potential effects on consumers and credit grants. Scott Shook notes NCFCCS response and 22 years of service in Cedar Rapids.
