Loan-Capped Hearts Heal in Cuba

Joy

Great news! The university just announced new scholarships for nursing students!

Joy

Maybe finally we can stop the shortage!

Ryoko

Yeah, until they find out the government still caps loans for 'non-professional' degrees.

Ryoko

Therapists, OTs, nurses... all vital, all shafted.

Tenchi Masaki

Tell me about it... I'm still paying interest from my student loans.

Tenchi Masaki

The interest has interest.

Joy

I'm just glad I earned my degree in Cuba—tuition was zero.

Ryoko

So that's the secret: interdimensional med-school tourism!

Tenchi Masaki

Damn, I should have went to Cuba to study.

Tenchi Masaki

You think they'll defer my student loans there?

Joy

Sure—just remember, graduation comes with two years of state clinic service... in rural Havana.

Ryoko

Bring bug spray, country boy!
