More and more students are heading out of state for school, even though some of our best universities are right here in California. I’ll change that. By pairing two years of free community college with two free years at our UC and CSU campuses, I will make a four-year degree a reality for everyone—without the debt.

Dual enrollment provides opportunities for students to earn college credit, gain real skills, and step confidently into the workforce. Not every path runs through a four-year degree — and that's a good thing.

A four-year college degree was the right path for me, but my path can’t be the only path to success. We need to make sure every American who wants to become a welder, electrician, or machine operator can also live the American Dream without the burden of college debt. And we will in Ohio.

🔊 ... is college a scam? "I believe that college is a scam. I believe it is a money making machine and that's all it is. I believe trade schools are probably better than college" "I think that a 4 year college degree can honestly be turned into two years. Everything in those 4 years could have been condensed into 2 years. But I think they wanted it to be four years because that is more money that they can make per person."

California has some of the world’s best universities, yet our students are fleeing the state to find affordable education. I’m putting a stop to that. By offering two years of free community college followed by two free years at a UC or CSU, my plan will allow every Californian to earn a four-year degree 100% tuition-free.

There is a culture of dehumanizing Jews on the Left and it's being mainstreamed through elite higher eduction. A terrorist with a college degree and a manifesto that reads like a college oped chanting a campus chant to justify the murder of Jews is a product of that culture.

The Trump Administration’s action to stop funneling student loans into low-value degree programs is a great step to both weaken the college cartel and protect young Americans from getting scammed.

We’ve started a new academic year here at Hillsdale College. Students and their families arrived on campus, some for the first time, others returning for another year. A college exists for a serious and joyful purpose: to seek what is true, to understand what is good, and to learn how to live well. We are glad to have our students back and eager to begin this work together once again. It will be a good year.

The working class didn't fall for Zohran, college grads did. 57% of New Yorkers with a bachelor's degree or higher supported Mamdani, compared with only 39% of working class voters. Education, more than income, signals class because it shapes habits, networks, and outlook long after the degree is earned. Higher education encodes cultural capital: speech patterns, tastes, opinions, and expectations about life. Income can fluctuate across a lifetime; the worldview forged in selective institutions does not. By that standard, college college graduates—regardless of earnings—are not working class.

Ben Horowitz on an alternative path for young people: finish high school, spend a year learning about a field of interest, then let the work teach the rest. "The world has really changed, warfare has changed, power has changed, economics have changed... And there's not a constant refresh of the knowledge." "Arguably a better system is, you finish your 12 years of education in elementary and high school, then you maybe get a year that bridges you to knowledge in a field you want to go into... and then go from there." "For most college students, probably over 95% of college students are there to prepare themselves for the workforce. And a four-year degree to do that seems a little misplaced in a world where the rate of change is so high." benahorowitz.eth (2024)

After AIIMS Darbhanga, have a look at a BEd college in Madhya Pradesh. A ground where college is being run for the last 10 years or more have no campus, no students, but still hundreds of students pass every year. There are just 2 buildings and even locals are saying that there is no college. Imagine the scam level of BJP. This is why BJP should not be given chance to form govt continuously.

👀 Senator Ted Cruz says the Protect College Sports Act isn't about the one percent of student athletes who go pro — it's about the hundreds of thousands of college athletes who depend on scholarships as their best path to a degree. "Many of them are coming from low-income environments where they would not otherwise be able to go to school," Cruz said. 👉 Watch the full conversation on Fly Out Day hosted by Jake Sherman now!

Arizona State University recently launched a new bachelor’s degree in content creation. Students would learn to create video, podcasts and social media content, with curriculum that overlaps with ASU’s mass communication and media studies degree. ASU’s announcement was met with swift criticism from many sides — from people who feel content creation is not a legitimate profession to those who question the value of a college degree in launching a social media career. Some content creators, however, praised the degree, arguing their jobs involve teachable skills that can transfer to other careers.
