Monday Matters #23

Boyers v. Horn

In these Boyers and Horn are both giving their opinions on Obama's new education reform. This reform being if students are able to maintain a certain GPA throughout their high school years, they will be able to receive free college tuition at a community college. However, both writers feel this plan if flawed, but for different reasons. Jason Boyers discusses that college is not a guarantee for success and gives fact to back that up. He feels that if Obama wants to get employment out of these community college graduates, he needs to work with industry. Michael B. Horn feels it is a good plan, however, too many problems arise as a result, such as, a piling up of debt and over populated community colleges. He feels Obama needs to just work on making all college more affordable as a whole.
