Book interview opportunity for graduate students

By on October 13th, 2004

Here follows an announcement from Anya Kamenetz, author of the Village Voice article “Wanted: Really Smart Suckers,” about which I blogged some time back. She’s looking for graduate students to interview for an upcoming book. I’m posting the announcement she sent me in case any of you who come here for the postacademic commentary are interested in participating. So, herewith:

I’m a freelance journalist working on my first book, which grew out of a Village Voice series called Generation Debt. The book is to be published by Riverhead Books, a division of Penguin, and is titled Class Dismissed: The New Realities of Youth, Life and Debt. I am interested in speaking with a variety of graduate students in their twenties or early 30s about their financial experiences, their loan debt, their ambitions and plans for the future. If you’d be willing to be interviewed by phone for about 30 minutes, please email me.

Thanks very much,
Anya (Anyaanya@gmail.com)

    Oh, dear. And those of us without loan debt?

    We’re very, very lucky, is, I think, the response. (Yet another part of why I am no longer at (that particular) school.)
