Recently Dealscape reported that the Service Employee
International Union had identified J.C. Flowers & Co.'s Sallie Mae buyout
the latest public enemy number one as part of its battle with private equity.

directly associated with the union remain committed to investing in private
equity funds. —Matthew Wurtzel
