Issues Seminar: Econo-me



Gas prices. Layoffs. Foreclosures. The headlines are bleak, and very real for many Michigan families. During MIPA week, you'll be invited to our Issues Seminar, where you can sit in and ask questions of a panel as they discuss the topic of Michigan's economy and its effect on families, students and schools.

We will have an economics professor on the panel, as well as people who have seen the economy's effects on schools and families first-hand.

As you prepare for camp, think about how the last few years have affected your community and school. What kinds of questions do you have? How would you cover this large topic, and make it interesting and useful to the readers of your newspaper or yearbook?
