St. Louis City Mayoral Election Primary

I was pretty frantic prior to the episode airing last night; however, it turned out fantastic. Stay Tuned had an excellent panel of guests who came prepared and each one had insightful opinions about St. Louis City Mayor Election cause and effect. 

The best part about the episode was how it helped viewers discover more about the candidates and the issues around picking the next St. Louis Mayor.

#StayTunedSTL trended on Twitter all night.  

The St. Louis Beacon has written a great overview about the candidates and what the election means for the region. Be sure to read it before you vote in city on Tuesday March 5.

What’s the impact of a college education?

I’m really eager for tomorrow nights conversation on Stay Tuned. We’re going to be talking about the role of receiving a college education in our region. With tuition ever increasing, the ups and downs of higher education funding and finding a job there’s bound to be strong opinions and stories. 

American Graduate, a Nine Network Public Broadcasting led initiative, addresses the dropout crisis in the nation will have an impact on the conversation as well.

The Chronicle of Higher Education also gives a very informative breakdown, state by state, about who graduates, who doesn’t and why it matters.

Please join the conversation tomorrow at 9p, CST with #StayTunedSTL on Twitter, or like Nine Networks Facebook page. You can also watch the show live online.

I hope to hear your stories, experiences and opinions about the impact of a college education!

Stay Tuned!
