Just in time for Pride Month, San Antonio College (SAC) has been recognized as an LGBTQ-friendly higher learning institution by the Campus Pride Index, an organization that produces a national ranking of colleges and universities, according to a press release.
Considering policies and programs to see if they cultivate a safe and inclusive environment for LGBTQ students, SAC earned a 4.5 stars in the 5-star rating system, earning Premiere status from the index.

Their managers are ignorant that bonds and other key asset classes are increasingly correlated to equities. And they naively believe that the pricey hedge funds they shovel their money into will provide safe haven in a selloff.
