Description

Encampments raided, college presidents sacked, student loan forgiveness struck down, DEI programs abolished, and free speech battles raging–what in the world is going on across our nation’s college campuses? With so many hot button issues impacting higher education today, how should students, families, and folks in the K-12 space navigate discussions and decisions about going to college? This week we’re joined by Kirk Carapezza, the Managing Editor and Correspondent for higher education at GBH News and cohost of the podcast College Uncovered with John Marcus from the Hechinger Report! He shares some of his takeaways from years of reporting on the state of higher education. But first, Jeff and Manuel take a look at recent headlines in education including an education titan’s praise of standardized testing and a new law banning legacy admissions.
