Ozempic stylish

When each superstar — and each non-celebrity — who can get their arms on a GLP-1 runs to take action, is it a stretch to watch that the so-called “physique positivity” motion was a fraud (“Slim minded,” Allison Lax, Dec. 3)?

Assist our college students

It’s no shocker that 63% of voters consider {that a} faculty diploma isn’t value it, particularly since many college students graduate with massive quantities of debt and no particular job expertise (“Schools’ Collapsing Worth,” Editorial, Dec. 1).

The price of training is uncontrolled and plenty of faculty curricula don’t match at the moment’s job-market wants, not to mention put together college students for the longer term.

Many politicians love to make use of European nations as shining examples of fine training methods, however they’re ignoring various approaches.

Draconian gun legislation
