I Think It's My Job To Tell

We Need To Invest In Very Different Ways. Get The Students The Support They Need, Get Them The Best Principals, Get Them The Great Teachers, And I Promise You Those Students Would Do Extraordinarily Well. I Have Seen It All My Life.

To Encourage More Top-caliber Students To Choose Teaching, Teachers Should Be Paid A Lot More, With Starting Salaries More In The Range Of $60,000 And Potential Earnings Of As Much As $150,000.

We All Have A Role To Play - The President, Congress, Parents, Students And Schools - In Making College Affordable And Keeping The Middle Class Dream Alive.

Far Too Many Of Our Children Today, Our Students, Need Remedial Education. We Have Been Lying To Them. They're Not Really Ready For College. That's Not Higher Education's Fault. That's Our Fault K-12.

At A Time When Going To College Has Never Been More Important, It's Never Been More Expensive, And Our Nation's Families Haven't Been In This Kind Of Financial Duress Since The Great Depression. And So What We Have Is Just Sort Of A Miraculous Opportunity Simply By Stopping The Subsidy To Banks When We Already Have The Risk Of Loans. We Can Plow Those Savings Into Our Students. And We Can Make College Dramatically More Affordable, Tens Of Billions Of Dollars Over The Next Decade.
