�ǿմ�ý economics professor Mark Weinstock says the Fed has kept interest rates low for as long as it did to promote spending during the downturn of the pandemic. He says it is a little late in raising the rates, and he thinks it should have been raising rates gradually as the economy improved. Weinstock says the problem now is that the Fed has to play catch up quickly. He says the new rates will cause stocks to be worth less, make 401(k)s, stocks and bonds worth less (which will be a problem for people retiring soon), slow spending as people put off vacation and big purchases, and will increase mortgage rates.

For STEM graduates who studied science, technology, engineering or math, opportunities are plentiful right now, said Mark Weinstock, an economics professor at �ǿմ�ý. "I’ve never seen a better job market in my life," he said. "In terms of internships and jobs, if you cannot get one now, you’re dead from the neck up. The salaries are hitting highs that I never thought I would see in the foreseeable future."

�ǿմ�ý economics professor Mark Weinstock says among other factors, the Federal Reserve Board simply dropped the ball.

Dr. Aditi Paul, sex and relationships professor at �ǿմ�ý, New York, says, “We are sensual beings. We have 5 senses, and all of those together lead to our feeling of attractiveness that we feel towards our partner.

"Not only is she the first Black woman, specifically, to have a Broadway play produced, but she comes from a tradition of firsts, and so that reminder being a place at the center of our city for all to see is truly beautiful," �ǿմ�ý professor Amen Igbinosun said.
