Politico quotes Annette Wysocki in an article about the consequences of President Trump’s proposed omission of nursing schools from the list of professional degree programs that can be borrowed for under the “One Big Beautiful Bill.” Wysocki said it would be a hard sell to convince prospective faculty to turn down high-paying clinical jobs to teach, especially if they have significant student loan debt. “Right now, every single one of my faculty who is a licensed professional nurse practitioner could easily be paid much more than I can pay them to be on faculty,” she said.
