This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.
Important notes on articles:
- Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
- Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
- If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

CNN: The head of FAFSA has resigned (link) by Raoul
We are still at the peak of the FAFSA mess. This does nothing to improve the situation but it does recognize that Richard Cordray presided over the current FAGSA chaos. His focus was on setting up loan forgiveness and not a smooth rollout of the new FAFSA form which several posters here have related their own frustrations.
P.S. Good luck to all who are dealing with this right now.
[Edit: Technically he will still be around for a couple months]
