Colleagues,

Please note that NPR did an early morning Education story today
titled "Bush Education Cuts Jeopardize GED Programs." It was part of
the NPR Morning Edition. It had to do with how the administration's
plans to cut adult education programs could/would be a blow to
unemployed mill workers in North Carolina trying to get back into the
workforce. When I checked the NPR web site, the piece was not yet
available as a textual transcript, but I gather it will be. Meantime,
an audio report is available at the NPR site.
