The Atlantic-- The Misfortune of Graduating in 2020The current economic conditions could take this year’s grads 10 years or more to recover from. By the end of the current academic year, American schools will have conferred an estimated 3.7 million high-school diplomas, 1 million associate’s degrees, and 2 million bachelor’s degrees. Many of those 6-million-plus graduates will soon pursue another degree, but many others will enter a historically terrible labor market, and one that’s especially brutal for young workers. The class of 2020 has some extraordinarily rotten luck to graduate right now, and the unfortunate timing could set many of them back financially and professionally for years. https://www.theatlantic.com/family/archive/2020/05/class-of-2020-graduate-jobs/611917/ Joe Pinsker| May 22, 2020
