Fawn Johnson reports in National Journal Daily.
The public's opinions are virtually unchanged from similar National Journal polling one year ago when a congressional super committee was facing the same dilemma--make a deal or face automatic cuts. The super committee failed. The cuts are still looming. The only difference between then and now is that the deal-making is slated to occur after the election, which theoretically will shield the negotiators from voter blame for at least two years.
Then, as now, just over half of poll respondents (55 percent) said they think that tax rates for families with incomes above $250,000 should increase on Jan. 1 as part of expiring Bush tax cuts or that wealthier families should see a decrease in their itemized deductions (58 percent). Last year, those figures were 53 percent and 55 percent, respectively.

Emporio Ixtapa Review
Furnishings are an adroit mix of rustic and modern in this midsize, 11-story resort. Rooms are simple but bright, done in mostly white with a few earth-tone accents. Junior suites have views from both the living room and the bedroom. There aren't any private balconies, but windows that reach nearly from the floor to the ceiling open to the sea breezes. A children's pool with a slide lures kids away from the palm-shaded main pool, which has a swim-up bar.

About Stockton-on-Tees
Visitors to Stockton on Tees have a variety of attractions to choose from. A particularly popular one of these is the Preston Hall Museum, which is set amid one hundred acres of glorious parkland overlooking the river and offers many displays of historical artefacts, centuries-worth of artworks and interesting social history. The surrounding gardens contain various animal exhibits, such as an exotic wildfowl centre and a butterfly house, and even a small-gauge steam railway.
Another point of historical interest in Stockton is a full-size replica of Captain James Cook's famous ship, HM Endeavour, the only one of its kind in the Northern hemisphere.
Boat trips on the Tees are very popular for visitors too, whether it be jumping aboard the Princess river-cruiser that sail the river year-round taking in the beautiful countryside or enjoying travelling at your own pace in a hired sailing boat or canoe.

A PUB business in South Tyneside is ale and hearty after toasting new expansion plans.
Tonight sees the launch of the Jarrow Beer, Sausage and Cocktail Festival at The Maltings, in Claypath Lane, South Shields.
The festival, which lasts until Saturday, will see more than a dozen Jarrow Brewery ales on offer, including new beers like The Last Ship, plus sausages made from beer, beer "cocktails", and the launch of the thriller novel Gladio, by regional writer Steve Chambers.
The festival will also help celebrate Jarrow Brewery's ambitious growth plans. After experiencing problems financing the business, Jarrow Brewery has received help from financial expert Paul Minnikin and Paul Thompson, from York-based Acorn Commercial Finance, who have now formed JB Finance, based at the borough brewery's new plant, at Bede Industrial Estate, Jarrow.
The new finance company plans to help credit flowing to companies like Jarrow Brewery and other expanding firms in the area.
Plus, Jarrow Brewery has just added another pub to its expanding commercial empire after agreeing to buy The Jarrow Crusaders, in Walter Street, Jarrow, while it is seeking a tenant for the company-owned Magnesia Bank, in North Shields.
Meanwhile, a company share issue announced last year is awaiting registration.
Jarrow Brewery owner Jess McConnell, said: "We're hoping to raise £1m during 2014 in four tranches, so anybody at all can contact us with expressions of interest.
"We have had applications for shares from small investors, who are simply fans of the brewery, right through to people in the City."
Jarrow Brewery has also just appointed Mike Berriman, who has a wealth of experience in the brewery business, as its sales and marketing manager.

MIDDLEBURY — It's been hard to make a buck on Wall Street during the past few years with a market that has been more bear than bull. It's an environment that has chewed up and spit out many a seasoned broker.
Then there's Forrest Wright-Lapin. At an age when most kids are collecting baseball cards and mastering X-box games, Wright-Lapin, 13, is proving himself to be quite the financial whiz kid. The Middlebury Union Middle School 8th-grader recently won first place in a statewide, scholastic stock market competition — and he did it without breaking much of a sweat.

MIDDLEBURY — A state investigation concerning the financing of a full-length film by well-known Addison resident Malcolm "Mac" Parker has been misconstrued, says a spokesman for a group of lenders who support Parker's project.
"First and foremost, we are strongly opposed to what the state is purporting … that he (Parker) is selling securities and that he is not licensed to sell securities. Both complaints are completely groundless," said Vergennes resident Christopher White, a lender and spokesperson for a group of supporters who have established a legal defense fund on Parker's behalf.
MIDDLEBURY — A majority of the UD-3 board on Tuesday rejected a motion to reopen the proposed 2010-2011 budget for additional cuts, stating it was too late in the process to make sweeping changes and that district voters will have a chance to send them a message about the spending plan on Town Meeting Day.
The board had called the meeting late last week after it received information from the state that indicated property taxes in some Addison Central Supervisory Union towns could be rising dramatically despite a proposed 2.81 percent increase in spending.
MIDDLEBURY — The Vermont Agency of Agriculture lifted the suspension on Bernard and Louis Quesnel's livestock dealer license as of Jan. 4.
As reported in the Dec. 24 edition of the Independent, the brothers, who operate Quesnel Livestock out of farm off Route 7 North in Middlebury, had their dealer license suspended on Dec. 16 following an investigation into the sale of horses within the state without proper testing for Equine Infectious Anemia.
MIDDLEBURY — The UD-3 school board will hold a special budget meeting this Tuesday, Jan. 12, to discuss new education funding information from the state that indicates the seven towns in the Addison Central Supervisory Union could be in store for even worse budget news than they had anticipated.
MIDDLEBURY — Middlebury Selectman Don Keeler will not run for re-election this March, citing a desire to at least temporarily take a break from town government activities and give someone else a chance to serve the community.
"I thought long and hard about it," Keeler said during an interview last week. "I just think that with the six years I've served, along with the six years I served during the late 1970s and early 1980s, I've done my part. It's time for some new blood."
MIDDLEBURY — Middlebury College kicked off a month-long look at sustainable agriculture last Thursday with a panel addressing questions about agriculture and higher education.
The panel — made up of Melina Shannon-DiPietro from the Yale Sustainable Food Project, Ben Waterman from the University of Vermont, Philip Ackerman-Leist from Green Mountain College, and Gregory Peck from Cornell University — was the first in a series of public discussions slated to take place in January.
MIDDLEBURY — John McCardell, Middlebury College professor and president emeritus, will leave Middlebury College after a 34-year stint at the school to accept the position of president of Sewanee: The University of the South, effective July 1.
College President Ronald D. Liebowitz shared the news with the college in an e-mail on Wednesday.
MIDDLEBURY — Middlebury residents on Jan. 26 will be able to weigh in on a proposed fiscal year 2011 municipal budget that is $50,468 less than the current spending plan and that would maintain the same municipal tax rate as this year.
The Middlebury selectboard on Tuesday officially OK'd, for public hearing, a proposed municipal spending plan of $8,127,649 — of which $1,250,000 is associated with debt service on the new Cross Street Bridge. That expense is being covered by a bond issue, with the debt retired through local option taxes and a substantial gift from Middlebury College.
MIDDLEBURY — It was way too frigid to pause for a view of the Otter Creek Falls in Middlebury last week, but a work crew braved the elements to rough out the contours of a new park area in the Marble Works that will really start to take shape next spring.

Gentry joins Kerr's Warriors staff as associate head coachDiamond Leung, Contra Costa Times
The Golden State Warriors reached agreement on a three-year contract with Alvin Gentry to become their associate head coach under Steve Kerr, Gentry's agent confirmed via text message Thursday.
Gentry, who served as the Los Angeles Clippers' associate head coach this past season, has worked with Kerr before. He was Phoenix's head coach during Kerr's stint as the team's general manager, overseeing a Suns squad that led the NBA in scoring on their way to making a Western Conference finals appearance in 2009-10.
Gentry, 59, compiled a 335-370 record in NBA head coaching jobs with Miami, Detroit, the Clippers and Phoenix, fulfilling Kerr's desire of having at least one experienced head coach on the bench with him.
While Kerr has never coached professionally, Gentry has more than 30 years of coaching experience in the professional and college ranks.
Kerr had met with former Maccabi Tel Aviv coach David Blatt and tried to lure one of the most accomplished coaches in Europe to Golden State to become an assistant coach. But Cleveland on Thursday night offered its head coaching job to Blatt. The Cavaliers had also interviewed Gentry for the same job.
Warriors co-owner Joe Lacob told KGO-TV on Sunday that "there might well be" more than one former head coach on Kerr's staff, adding that the team had been talking to Blatt along with a number of other candidates.
"And I can just tell you that I think you'll be happy and our fans will be happy that we're putting together a great staff, and when they look back at it, they'll say this is a staff that we think we can improve our players, develop our players and win," Lacob said.

Robert Shaw Radio
He didn't record much at all -- a marvelous 1963 album for Almanac, reissued on Chris Strachwitz's Arhoolie label, remains his principal recorded legacy -- but barrelhouse pianist Robert Shaw helped greatly to establish a distinctive regional style of pounding the 88s around Houston, Fort Worth, and Galveston during the 1920s and '30s. Those decades represented Shaw's playing heyday, when he forged a stunning barrelhouse style of his own in the bars, dancehalls, and whorehouses along the route of the Santa Fe Railroad. Shaw got around -- in 1933, he had a radio program in Oklahoma City. But by the mid-'30s, Shaw relegated his playing to the back burner to open a grocery store. Mack McCormick coaxed him back into action in 1963 and the results as collected on Arhoolie were magnificent; "The Cows" was a piece of incredible complexity that would wilt anything less than a legitimate ivories master. Shaw continued to perform stateside and in Europe intermittently during the 1970s, turning up unexpectedly in California in 1981 to help Strachwitz celebrate Arhoolie's 20th anniversary. ~ Bill DahlPortions of Content Provided by Rovi Corporation.

Our reference board was a Gigabyte GA-8IHXP based on the 850E chipset from Intel as well as PC1066 RDRAM. You shouldn't try to compare these two platforms directly because they target a wide range of buyer groups : while the Intel chipset, in connection with Rambus memory, always attains the best performance, this combination is much more expensive than the SiS648 and DDR333.
However, the 850E chipset is still the standard - and the one against which the five candidates must ultimately be measured.

Movie News
Gareth Edwards' Next Film After GODZILLA Is A "Robot STAR WARS!"
Nordling here,
Due to CGI, we can put on screen pretty much any story idea or setting we can imagine. This can be both good or bad; filmmakers who can't show any sense of restraint tend to overuse the technology and the world ends up looking like a cutscene from a videogame. Gareth Edwards is not one of those directors, judging from his film MONSTERS. He knew his limitations with the technology and the budget, and the result is a riveting monster movie that never forgets the people in it.
Gareth Edwards is currently in pre-production on a new GODZILLA film, written bu David Goyer, and if it were most other directors I'd write this movie off. But Edwards gets good performances from his actors and he's ambitious. His follow-up film sounds even more ambitious, and Slashfilm has more information, according to their sources.
Edwards' next film after GODZILLA is being described as a "robot STAR WARS" as a 5 year old child travels the galaxy with his robot companion to find the origin of humanity. There are apparently no other humans left in this universe, which is entirely populated by other robots. What's more, he's only budgeted the film at $35 million, which should make the film much easier to produce and get bought. Gareth Edwards told Playlist recently, "It will require all my resources. The trick is to take the positive elements of having more money and the positive elements of having no money, and try to combine the two." Remember Neill Blomkamp shot DISTRICT 9 for only $30 million, and low to mid-budgeted sci-fi seems to be the way to go these days as the tech gets better. Filmmakers like Edwards and Blomkamp seem to understand how to make the technology work for them under limited funds and directorial restraint.
I very much look forward to this new project of Gareth Edwards. It sounds like an exciting time to be a science fiction film geek.
Nordling, out.

Edwards is a skilled filmmaker.
by Sardonic
Monsters wasn't perfect, but it was way better than most things of it's ilk. If that movie was any indication, he knows how direct actors and make a good human drama. I'm would be very hesitant about this Godzilla flick if it wasn't for Edwards. He might be the perfect guy for it (I just hope he doesn't get crushed by the studio system, in what is sure to be a big-budget, possible-start-of-franchise-film).

I'm with you on this, Nordling.
by AlienFanatic
It seems that the two low-budget Sci-Fi films I've admired over the last few years (Moon and D9) have been the absolute best of their kind. It's almost a minor renaissance of the kind of films that arrived in the 70's. When directors are forced to think smaller and craftier, we got films like Jaws, Alien, and Silent Running. There will be loads of high-budget Sci-fi films that come out, but I bet they'll leave me cold. Let's hope that guys like Edwards, Blomkamp, and maybe even Jones again can bring indie Sci-Fi films to market that show the big studios how it's done.
Aug. 5, 2011, 1 p.m. CST
I just watched Monsters, and I have to say...
by odysseus
...it wak okay -- but I don't see why anyone watching it would think Edwards is the right guy to pull off Godzilla.

Monsters was awesome!

Extremely underrated. Agree with alienfanatic- these guys(Edwards, Duncan Jones, Blomkamp) are the coming of the anti-Bay. Imagination over CGI moneyshots. Hope Edwards finds the balance in Godzilla, something you really don't want restraint from but shouldn't be retarded either. Weirdly, Monsters reminded me of Oliver Stone's Salvador-a war zone photographer trying to get through Latin America with his life. The scene at the gas station is jaw droppingly transcendent. Fuck, I dig that movie!

District 9 comparison not really valid
by cenobiteme
Considering Peter Jackson produced the film and he owns a large chunk of Weta Digital, I would say the film's effects were heavily discounted. That film's level of effects would have pushed the budget to 80 million without the man on the inside so to speak.
Aug. 5, 2011, 1:44 p.m. CST
Not sure I agree with that cenobiteme
by Sardonic
Check out some of Blomkamp's early shorts...a lot of them had really impressive effects for what was obviously a small budget. I'm not saying Weta didn't play a part, but with a different director, I find it hard to believe D9 could have been done with the same amount of money. The aliens are still virtually flawless looking, which many movies with LARGER budgets do not even pull of. Blomkamp definitely played a major part in the effects department. He's as much an SFX guy as he is a straight director.

I honestly can't remember hardly anything about Mosters
by Domi'sInnerChild
Spoiler? Aliens control most of Mexico, they lose their ticket, the cross Mexico, there's flashes of aliens, they get to US, big aliens attack a gas station, then wander off. I literally can't remember a single line of dialog. It wasn't terrible, clearly competent and not SyFy material, it just seemed kinda bland. I just don't ever remember thinking, "WOW what if this guy gets a budget" or anything.

STAR WARS with a five year old?
by Fart Magnus
So he's re-doing The Phantom Menace?!?
Aug. 5, 2011, 2:02 p.m. CST
by cenobiteme
I don't see how you can compare the effects in his short "Yellow" or even "Alive in Joburg" to level in District 9. District 9 has incredible effects and a lot of shots that take a rather large team to pull off. Not taking anything away from Blomkamp as a director with a vfx background, he's talented no doubt. My point is that Peter Jackson no doubt brought the budget down considering he owns the vfx company that worked on District 9.

marketing on D9

I dunno about anywhere else, but the marketing campaign in the UK was very lo-fi and low key. Lots of the No Non Humans and humans only soigns appeared on bus stops and phone booths and the like. I can't recall seeing a tv spot for it

Actually Weta contributed relatively little to the VFX of District 9. They'd came up with much of the design work but as District prepped for shooting Weta became tied up with Avatar amongst other things. Image Engine and The Embassy did the lions share of what you see onscreen. So no 'discounts' - though that would be no way to run a company anyway.

MONSTERS had issues
by golden tribw
There were a couple of good ideas but the structure of the story made no sense. It starts with a bunch of people you don't know basically being slaughtered. It ends a few minutes BEFORE that on what seems like an optimistic note if you aren't paying enough attention to realize that the opening scene is about to happen. And, knowing that, you are left with no idea what actually happens to the heroes or what the ramifications of their ambiguous fate might be. The understated use of effects was nice, but the movie overall was a pretty big misfire if you ask me.

Did somebody Weta their pants?
by cenobiteme
Is that why the majority of the credits for vfx on District 9 are with Weta. Sure, some of the work was farmed out but it has to be on a big film to make the deadline. Almost all vfx heavy films farm out different elements to different companies to share the workload. Don't act like Weta didn't work on District 9 though for the sake of argument that's just silly. There are 248 people from Weta who worked on District 9 and 130 people from Image Engine that worked on the film so no, Weta did a lot of the heavy lifting for sure. To think that a Peter Jackson produced project is charged the same as a guy that doesn't own the company doesn't make sense to me. People still got paid but all businesses have a sliding scale especially as far as Hollywood is concerned. There is not a set price for things in Hollywood, favors and deals are always part of the business.

...though Sci-Fi films I loved involving children include: The Never-Ending Story, D.A.R.Y.L, Flight of the Navigator, Pan's Labyrinth, Explorers, and E.T. Even Dakota Fanning in the TV mini-series "Taken" was great. And as much as the movie frustrated me, A.I. was extremely effective as a film with a child actor. I also wanted to mention Space Raiders but I have very little memory of that film. I was about 10 when I saw it and was hoping it would be like Star Wars but I seem to recall being disappointed somehow.

Forget about the other stuff, what about GODZILLA!!!!
by Violator90
I don't care about the next project, I want to know about the Big G himself, Godzilla. It took years for the turd taste that was GINO to go away. So now a new Godzilla is coming out of Hollywood and not much is known but yet we know more about the next project??? WTF?!Forget that shit and focus on the King of Monsters! I want to know how he will look like, is this the origin story, are there going to be monsters for Big G to fight, will it be a straight up all-out-monster-brawl, or just a Bayish story focusing on the humans and not the monster(s?) Its all nice and all to have future project but if your current project which Godzilla flops like GINO did, hell we all know what can happen. So give us some details on Godzilla please!

for a split second when I first glanced at this article, I thought it said reboot Star Wars
by lv_426
Lucas is mad I say!! MAD!! Then I chilled out and saw that it said a robot Star Wars... ... which made me think that Lucas hired this Gareth Edwards dude to make some Star Wars spin-off with just droids as the main characters. Then I realized that it was just one of those vague Hollywood short-handed pitches that lumps two movies or items together without much context or any sense of what the fuck it is really supposed to be beyond the most basic and generic sense. It's Mrs. Doubtfire in space! It's Gone With The Wind with time travel and fart jokes, starring Jack Black! It's a kid-friendly World War II epic with all the Disney characters filling in for historical figures. It's Avatar meets Dances With Wolves!!!! It's The Breakfast Club on a prison bus! It's Beverly Hills Cop on Mars... wait for it... in the future! It's Die Hard in a port-o-potty!

by lv_426
I thought Monsters was pretty damn impressive. It is good to see Gareth Edwards doing more sci-fi. I'm wondering what the hell he'll do with Godzilla though. Hopefully it will be different but not as understated as Monsters was. I want to see the big G destroy the shit out of the place.
Aug. 6, 2011, 12:57 a.m. CST
by J.B.M.A.
I've given the you the absolute FACTS regarding District Nine. If you insist on acting like a cunt that's your problem. Weta contributed the wide shots of the floating spaceship, bits of the command center taking off from the shanty town and the H.O.D for the suit robot. That's it. They DID work on most of the production art but the character animation everyone remembers? NOT WETA. Image Engine did all the alien animation. Art Dep adds a LOT of names re Weta's involvement but they were far too busy with AVATAR to do more than supervise at the film. If you want documentation then look no further than Cinefex's excellent coverage of the film. It's quite clear that you have no idea of the politics and financing spread of films. And it makes you look STUPID. You fucking idiot.

by Fineus Fog
Wellington aint Hollywood pal! - yes, WETA contributed but you need to realise there is WETA workshop (art dept, concepts etc) and WETA Digital (cgi) - which would "bump up" the WETA numbers. Previous posters mentioned the fantastic animation work done by Image Engine and Neill himself is no slouch when it comes to VFX. Just because PJ produced the film doesn't mean discounts apply. Do you really think he would be as successful financially as he is if he ran his projects like that???

Hugging Disco Cthulhu...

Aug. 7, 2011, 2:50 a.m. CST
How does David Goyer still get work?
by solanine
All of his successes come from piggybacking off of for more talented writers and directors. His stand alone projects have been mostly drivel. Also, Monsters was good, not great. People walk through Mexico, stop at a gas station, a couple of aliens dance in the street, film ends. Somewhat impressive due to the budget constraints, but without that taken into consideration, it's a 2.5-3/5 at best.
Aug. 7, 2011, 11:07 a.m. CST
Immortal Fish
by J.B.M.A.
The mothership needed the command centre module to fly. Unconvincing perhaps, but that was the contrivance that pushes the story forwards.
Aug. 7, 2011, 11:12 a.m. CST
I think you HAVE to take Monsters budget into consideration
by J.B.M.A.
That might seem like a cheat, but really - how many sub million dollar sci-fi films get released and are even watchable? It's not the best film in the world and more money would probably have changed how it's road trip vibe plays out, but that sequence at the end is stunning. Whole episodes of Sy-Fy channel crap cost more than this and are worth nothing of your time in reward.

Aug. 7, 2011, 5:50 p.m. CST
by solanine
That feels like a copout to me. The lack of action in the film isn't what put me off, it was the lack of writing that approached anything beyond mediocre. Most of the story and the characters just felt bland. You can't blame a lack of money on that. By the time the credits rolled, I was just left with a resounding feeling of, "Meh." To be fair, it's definitely more watchable than any of the garbage SyFy churns out, but there are few things that come close to reaching that level of awful.
Aug. 8, 2011, 3:34 p.m. CST
rupee88, yes way that District 9 only costed 30 millions. It's oen of reasons why it's so great.
by AsimovLives
It also teaches us that Hoylwood movies are over-priced and that they are very wasteful.

The lawyer for the schools, teachers and pupils has argued in court that this failure by pupils to achieve grades was not as a result of not "working hard or well", or failing to produce work of the same standard as their peers, who took the exam in January 2012.
But was a result of "illegitimate grade manipulation" because of a "statistical fix".
He argues this was manifestly unfair.

Lawsuit filed against Wellesley College, Conn. school district
CAMBRIDGE, Mass. — A Harvard University student died early Monday morning after jumping from an off-campus building Sunday, the university said.
Andrew Sun, a sophomore at Harvard College, jumped from a building that is not on the Harvard campus in downtown Boston early Sunday morning and suffered extremely serious injuries.
Sun had been hospitalized at Massachusetts General Hospital, where he underwent surgery.
In an interview with The Harvard Crimson Pforzheimer Co-House Masters Anne Harrington said that, "Very sadly, from all we understand at this point, this was not an accident."
Officer Rachel McGuire, of the Boston Police Department, confirmed that the incident occurred at 240 Atlantic Ave. near the New England Aquarium in the Seaport District of Boston, but said the department would not disclose further information.
In a message to students, interim Harvard College Dean Donald Pfister called Sun's death a "tragic loss" and said "it is important that we all support Andrew's family and friends, and that we support each other."
Sun was an economics major in the Class of 2016 originally from New Jersey. The newspaper said on its website that Sun's parents and aunt were with him when he died.

PROVIDENCE, R.I. — Two players suspended from the Providence College men's basketball team last fall are now being investigated by the Providence Police in connection to a sexual assault complaint made by a student, according to a report from the The Wall Street Journal cited by WPRI.com.
According to The Wall Street Journal, Rodney Bullock and Brandon Austin are the two players implicated in the sexual assault allegations. WPRI.com reported last November that Bullock and Austin had been suspended from the team for "not upholding their responsibilities as student athletes."
Austin has since left Providence College and now attends the University of Oregon. Bullock's attorney confirmed to The Wall Street Journal that his client has been accused of sexual assault.
While neither Providence College nor the police officially identified any suspects involved in the investigation, police confirmed that the two suspects were members of the basketball team during the time of the report.
The Friars' head coach Ed Cooley said in a statement that, "while I cannot talk about this situation further, it is a reminder that the privilege of representing Providence College comes with great responsibility for our student-athletes."
Providence police told WPRI.com they have not filed any charges and that the investigation is in its early stages.
PROVIDENCE, R.I. — Rhode Island College is offering counseling to students and flying flags at half-staff as it mourns an English professor who was struck and killed by a pickup truck in central New York state.
Forty-three-year-old Jennifer Cook of Providence was walking with her mother Friday afternoon in Syracuse when the truck veered across the road and struck them. Cook died and her mother, 72-year-old Barbara Cook, remains hospitalized. The cause of the accident remains under investigation.
Jennifer Cook was an associate professor of English at the Providence school and taught aspiring teachers. She also was executive director of the college's Rhode Island Writing Project, which aims to improve reading and writing across Rhode Island.
Rhode Island College President Nancy Carriulo says Cook's death has shocked and saddened the college community.
MEDFORD, Mass. — A new Tufts University program hopes to remove the financial barriers keeping cash-strapped students from taking a year off after high school to travel or volunteer, offering an opportunity to explore different communities before starting college.
This "gap year" program launching this fall will pay for housing, airfare and even visa fees, which can add up to $30,000 or more.
Students selected for Tufts' 4+1 program can defer their admission for a year while remaining tied to the university through video chat and email. Tufts will work with volunteer organizations to create packages that fit students' financial needs.
Holly Bull, president of the Center of Interim Programs, says students are able to see the world beyond the bubble they grew up in and get a better perspective of their future.
