That’s down from 57 percent in 2015. Gallup found the three main reasons for this lack of confidence are political agenda, cost and not preparing students for a future career.
This is a stunning—and much-needed—fall from grace.
Many schools and politicians spent decades pushing ever more kids into college. Sen. Bernie Sanders even sponsored the “College for All Act.” It was endorsed by numerous left-wing groups, including the American Federation of Teachers and National Education Association.
People have turned against higher education because they are leftists echo chambers. It is also too expensive. Is it worth even going to college?
