Intermezzo

What do you think about this?

In April, 2016, the Trenton Housing Authority hired Mayor Eric Jackson's sister, Pamela Brooks, to fill an $85,000 position as the Director of Resident and Community Services.

You can find the job description from the THA here.

On the last page, the education requirements are listed:
EDUCATION
Required: Bachelor's degree in Social Sciences, Urban Studies, Public Administration or related field.

Preferred: MSW 


As pointed out in David Foster's Trentonian article linked above and confirmed by Brooks' resume, she has a Bachelor of Arts degree in Economics from Rutgers.

That certainly isn't the MSW (Masters of Social Work) that was preferred in the job description.
