Democracy And Education
John Dewey's "Democracy and Education" addresses the challenge of providing quality public education in a democratic society. In this classic work Dewey calls for the complete renewal of public education, arguing for the fusion of vocational and contemplative studies in education and for the necessity of universal education for the advancement of self and society. First published in 1916, "Democracy and Education" is regarded as the seminal work on public education by one of the most important scholars of the century.

Where can I find an advisor for a career in options trading?

I think I would like to have my next career be as a self employed options trader. After a 14 year career in the Engineering and IT world I moved last year into a career in finance, specifically as a commercial lending officer for a large credit union ($1.5B.) My education career started in Engineering (including 19 hours of Calculus and linear algebra) but my actual undergrad is a BBA. My IT education includes 4 advanced self taught certifications. I started investing in CD's, stocks and bonds in 1990, added covered call options in 2000 and long call options in 2005. Even though I had never worked in the finance field, my amateur interest in the financial markets is great enough that senior management asks me my opinion on current issues and trends because of my constant exposure. As part of my job requirement I will be starting an MBA in September and my course of study is up to me as long as I am working on the graduate degree. Due to my pre-existing interest, heavy coursework in finance, securities and financial math would not be unusual. For political reasons I have to stay in this job for 4 years but I effectively have the opportunity, means and permission to rebuild myself with an eye toward starting on a career in the world of options should I so desire. I know that during my studies I could ask the professors and advisors about this but I would much rather find someone who is actually doing this to help me structure my courses and studies (formal and self taught) so that while I am being paid to learn I can be learning the things to help me most. As some here have seen (and answered my questions) I have at least some understanding of options trading. I have found what I think it an effective day trading strategy but it has the significant problems of being unable to scale and requiring constant attention to prevent being on the wrong side of a trend. I need to really learn to do spreads and other long term positions so I can make thousands on a longer term position instead of the $100 per round trip in 15 minutes I target today and not have to watch every minute move from 9:30 to 4:00 all day worrying about missing an instantaneous buying or selling opportunity. I would very much appreciate it if somebody who has had success in the area of options investing can help me to learn what I need to learn to have the mental tools and experience to be able to seek a career in this arena or barring direct help, help me to find someone who can guide me on this. I don't think I am asking for a lot of someone's time but I certainly think it can't hurt to ask for some help rather than waste money on books or seminars flailing about trying to find that one needle in the haystack of information otherwise uselss to me. Feel free to contact me directly should you be so inclined. Thanks in advance for any help provided.

I been trading options for some time, focusing on premium selling. My favorite strategy are credit spread and calendars. Dan Sheridan is a great option mentor. You can watch his videos at the cboe.com

Turning to my bank for an education loan?

I am suppose to start school in Jan., and my school just updated my fin. aid info stating that my pell grant wont be able until Feb 17. And they offered me a direct loan, I have read online and it said it may take up to 30 days for that loan to be processed..by that time...classes would have already started and I would like to register for classes right now before theyre full... 1.) Would it be a smart idea to take out a loan with my credit union INSTEAD of waiting for the loan to come through? 2.) If I use a bank loan, will I get a refund check? They offered me $2200 in pell grants(availability 2/17/10) 3.) What are my other options?

Your school has been notified that you are receiving a $2200. pell grant. They should allow you to sign up for classes and attend since the Pell gets sent right to them. Clearly you qualify for a high Pell grant which is based on need. I do not believe you would qualify for a loan if your Pell is high and there is absolutely no reason to get one when the school has confirmation of your Pell. Go see them and be nice. Have your request in writing. Ask them and have them give you their answer in writing. If they do not do it then inform them that you will be going to another school where they are more student friendly. You have options.
