Here’s what my early Monday reading turned up that may be of interest to you:

— A peek at a bill that may matter to anyone who is hiring college grads or who cares about student loan matters. From WHO-TV: Bill proposed to require college students to pass financial literacy class before graduation.

— The Waterloo-Cedar Falls Courier’s website starts with this milestone story amid more attention being paid to immigration lately: 10th anniversary of Postville immigration raid observed.

— If you need to catch up on March Madness for your office pool or just to be able to keep up when talking with co-workers at breaks, ESPN has this to help you out: Winners and losers from Selection Sunday.

— The Cedar Rapids Gazette provided a sales tax story I had not heard yet. The article says, “The University of Iowa and Iowa State University have stopped collecting sales tax on items sold at their campus bookstores — everything from text books and supplies to sweatshirts, face tattoos, dog bowls and stuffed animals.” Read more here.

— The New York Times started a series tied to Women’s History Month, “Overlooked,” that writes obituaries of women who contributed to significant issues or news, some going back to the 1800s.

— One longer article on my reading list — Clearing the radioactive rubble heap that was Fukushima Daiichi, 7 years on — is a reprint from Scientific American on Salon.com. This story doesn’t get a great deal of attention these days as the cleanup from the earthquake and nuclear accident continues, but the writer summarizes the ongoing effort to clean up the mess and how it will likely be costlier and take longer than estimates have said.
