With yesterday's passage of Wisconsin's end to collective bargaining rights for public employee unions, it is easy to say that yes, in fact, times have changed. But, this isn't anything new for veteran, experienced teachers: with every passing year, they can tell you how things have changed, for better or for worse. Yes, our country and most of the states in our nation are in a budget crisis, and yes, something needs to be done. Regardless of your political opinion, however, it is not fair to vilify any one group of people. The following opinion piece was written by a college student at UI (not sure if that is University of Iowa, or University of Illinois, but a student from the midwest, regardless.) I think she sums up nicely how I have been feeling the past few weeks! Please comment; I like to read them, even if you don't agree with me!
