Project 365 Day 279: Roman's Numeral

Tonight we returned to the Globalization lecture series at the Howe Hall auditorium on campus to see Christine Romans, an ISU alum and host and correspondent on a handful of shows on CNN. She is an economy specialist, and started out with one of her "Roman's Numeral" tidbits. These are noteworthy statistics she talks about on CNN, and tonight she discussed the fact that currently, on average, there are 5.5 applicants for every available job. She related a lot of her talk to the college-aged students in the classroom, and listening as "professional adults" (that still sounds weird), we were certainly glad to have our current jobs.
