• New Hampshire lawmakers seek more time to study proposal to hike tolls on out-of-state vehicles (wmur.com) — A proposal to raise New Hampshire turnpike tolls only on out-of-state drivers is being slowed down in the House, where lawmakers want more time to study its impact. Hanover Rep. Mary Hakken-Phillips argues the change would spare local taxpayers by asking visiting drivers to contribute more, while others worry about potential effects on tourism before any hike in 2027.
• Study Shows Racial Diversity in Business and Law Schools Leads to Higher Salaries for Graduates (jbhe.com) — Researchers from Dartmouth College in Hanover and the University of Connecticut report that business and law school cohorts with greater racial diversity see significantly higher starting salaries for all graduates. Their long-term analysis suggests even small increases in students of color can translate into millions of dollars in added lifetime earnings for each cohort, and warns that rolling back DEI efforts could reduce those gains.
