3. It isn't until the end where you find out the information that makes me have little sympathy...

"She recently received a raise and now makes $22 an hour working for a photographer. It’s the highest salary she’s earned since graduating with an interdisciplinary degree in religious and women’s studies. After taxes, she takes home about $2,300 a month. Rent runs $750, and the full monthly payments on her student loans would be about $700 if they weren’t being deferred, which would not leave a lot left over."


She chose to go into debt to get a degree that is a niche in the employment arena. Moreover, It looks like Ms. Munna can make her monthly payments just fine. I hope Ms. Munna enjoys her education and all that she learned, enjoys living on a great but expensive city, and eats more ramon so that she can pay down her debt faster.
