Lovebirds: Sallie Mae and Congresswoman Virginia Foxx

Oh! Isn't this generous of them?!? Sallie Mae and Congresswoman Virginia Foxx (R-NC) are hosting a workshop on how to pay for college! (Also, don't get the wrong idea about her - she's no shill for the lenders or the banks!) I bet that's going to be a stellar event, and the (mis)information will be grand.

On top of all the (mis)information the duo will be offering, they'll be handing out a whopping $500 "scholarship" for soon-to-be indentured students! Ain't that cute? What will that pay for? Let's see . . . I bet it will cover the cost of a textbook for their Chem class! Wow. Impressive.

They are soooooo generous, the event is also free?!? Wowser. I am so blown away. I wish I could attend!!!
