Five Cabinet Nominees can affect the education Control of school-related issues is spread across a number governmental agencies, and President-elect Donald Trump’s nominee for U.S. education secretary, Betsy DeVos, won’t be the only member of his cabinet to have a say in student-facing policy. The Michigan philanthropist and billionaire will face her Senate confirmation hearing next Tuesday, and many of her fellow nominees already have education records of their own. We examined five of the potential cabinet members who could influence America’s schools and what their past actions might mean for students around the country. Jeff Sessions - Nominated for U.S. Some civil-rights groups are concerned the Education Department’s Office for Civil Rights could be moved to the Department of Justice, meaning Jeff Sessions—who has an incredibly controversial record on civil rights—would oversee it. Sessions also harshly criticized the Individuals With Disabilities in Education Act (IDEA) in a 2000 speech on the Senate floor.

Discover Your Passion: Volunteering Opens Your Eyes to New Career Paths “Jambo! Jambo!” yells a young girl, greeting us with the traditional Swahili welcome. She runs towards us, a huge smile on her face despite the fact that she is barefoot and her dress is tattered. “Opportunity isn’t a chance, it’s a choice,” said Mia Farrow during a Me to We presentation to hundreds of youth from across North America, including myself. Me to We, a social enterprise created through the charity Free The Children, offers youth volunteer trips to Kenya, Ghana, Nicaragua, Ecuador, India and Arizona. I met Rebecca when we set out to collect water for a local village. I began the trip unsure if I would even attend university the following year, but the afternoon I spent with Rebecca and her family gave me the drive and passion I needed to make the decision to study journalism. Jenny Dadswell, a fellow volunteer, was also influenced by her experience in Kenya. Experiences like my trip to Kenya make you aware not only of the world and other cultures, but of yourself.

The search term ‘McDonald’s online order’ increased by 90 percent during this time, and online ordering platform FoodPanda saw over 11,000 new user orders within 10 days of demonetization.

And while federal policy is often a slow-moving train, it wouldn’t be difficult for the president-elect and the GOP-led Congress to change tracks on many key initiatives enacted by the Obama administration, affecting everything from the recent rewrite of the No Child Left Behind Act to school-lunch menus and oversight of for-profit colleges. It appears unlikely that President-elect Donald Trump can convince Congress—even a Republican-controlled Congress—to shell out $20 billion for school choice, as he promised during his campaign. But by tapping billionaire voucher-advocate Betsy DeVos for education secretary, Trump is making his priorities known. Rules for the Rewrite of the Federal K-12 Law
