The Trump administration just awarded Virginia-based Acquisition Logistics a $1.26 billion contract to operate a 5,000-bed tent camp on Fort Bliss in El Paso. The company previously got just $29 million in DOD logistics contracts over 5 years; now it'll run the largest detention camp in the US.
The Fort Bliss contract is by far the biggest ever for Acquisition Logistics, which Wagner, a retired Naval flight officer, founded in 2008. It specializes in supply chain management and other technical services, particularly for the US military, according to Wagner’s LinkedIn profile. Acquisition Logistics has received contracts worth roughly $29 million from the Defense Department over the past five fiscal years, mainly for logistics support work, according to government records. Most of that was through set-asides for small businesses. The company doesn’t appear to have any experience with detention, but earlier this year the US Army paid Acquisition Logistics more than $5 million for “lodging and conference room services” related to the agency’s work at the Southern Border under the Trump administration.

~13% of all 1st yr students in the US live on campus.Partly because ~40% are at CCs (most of much have no housing) . But only about 1/3 of public 4-year first-year students live on campus; even at privates (ivies, small lib arts-no doubt the only ones Pam thinks of as “real colleges”- only ~1/2 do.
A Look at College Students’ Living Arrangements
Those of us in the research and policy worlds generally had a different college experience than most American college students have today. One example of this is where students live during college. I ...
