Free college doesn't solve the biggest problem
from The Week in Philly from KYW Newsradio · host Audacy
When we talk about college these days, the discussion centers around cost. But you don’t hear a lot about the number of people who start college, but for all kinds of reasons can’t finish and get a degree. What can be done to help them and how much a game changer would it be? Is it time to reimagine our approach to college overall? And how do proposals made by President Biden in his American Families Plan help get us to where we need to be? Dr. Eileen Strempel joins KYW Newsradio in Depth to talk about it. She's the Inaugural Dean of the Herb Alpert School of Music at UCLA and she has co-authored the book “Beyond Free College: Making Higher Education Work for 21st-Century Students.”
