Arctic sea ice has *not* recovered, in 7 visuals
“And now it’s global COOLING! Record return of Arctic ice cap as it grows by 60% in a year” shouts the astonishingly misleading headline of a story by the Daily Mail’s David Rose. It is true, that compared to last year, Arctic sea ice has bounced back some from its mind-boggling record low in 2012, 49 percent below the 1979-2000 average.

'Hookup' culture on college campuses not all that new - FOX Carolina 21
'Hookup' culture on college campuses not all that new - FOX Carolina 21
"We found that college students from the contemporary or 'hookup era' did not report having more frequent sex or more sexual partners during the past year or more sexual partners since turning 18 than undergraduates from the earlier era," Monto said in American Sociological Association news release. Instead, 65 percent of students surveyed in the late '80s and early '90s said they had sex at least once a week in the past year, compared with 59 percent of students surveyed between 2002 and 2010. Moreover, 31.9 percent of the earlier group surveyed said they had more than one sexual partner within the past year, compared with 31.6 percent of students from the so-called hookup era. Similarly, 51.7 percent of the earlier group said they had more than two sexual partners since turning 18, compared with 50.5 percent of the students surveyed between 2002 and 2010.

Contemporary students were less likely than those from the earlier era to say they had sex weekly or more often (65.2 percent compared to 59.3 percent), and were almost exactly as likely as the earlier generation to say they’d had more than two sexual partners since turning 18 (51.7 percent of students in the past compared to 50.5 percent today).

Students get financial aid at highest rate since WWII
Most of the increase in student aid is coming from federal sources. Last year, 57% of undergraduates received some form of federal aid, including grants, loans and work-study funds, up from 47% four years earlier. Over the same period, the percentage of undergraduates receiving state aid or help from their college remained relatively flat, at 15% and 21%, respectively.
