Commerce in Shall

Before you spend, some money matters:

• The University of Houston’s creative writing program hasn’t increased graduate student stipends since 1993 and there are consequences.
• What’s made a $54.5 million impact on the bleary sub-metropolis of Harrisburg, Pennsylvania? Art.
• In solidarity with furloughed workers, the president will give up five percent of his salary: “Obama, whose $400,000 annual salary is set in law and can’t officially be changed, will write a check made out to the U.S. treasury every month beginning in April.”

That said:

• Keep art alive.
• Look at everything we get for free.
