WEBVTT - Rush Limbaugh Apr 23, 2021

0:00:00.120 --> 0:00:02.880
<v Speaker 1>There's a new poll out there on higher education from

0:00:02.920 --> 0:00:06.120
<v Speaker 1>the a P and the National Opinion Research and it's

0:00:06.240 --> 0:00:09.360
<v Speaker 1>nork and the experts are said to be alarmed at

0:00:09.400 --> 0:00:12.119
<v Speaker 1>the results. Now, according to the poll, a majority of

0:00:12.240 --> 0:00:17.000
<v Speaker 1>young Americans between thirteen and twenty nine agree that college

0:00:17.120 --> 0:00:20.320
<v Speaker 1>can put people on a path to success, but only

0:00:20.360 --> 0:00:24.200
<v Speaker 1>about forty percent agree that a four year degree adequately

0:00:24.280 --> 0:00:27.640
<v Speaker 1>prepares people for today's economy. Now here's the part that

0:00:27.720 --> 0:00:31.360
<v Speaker 1>experts find alarming. Half of these young Americans think that

0:00:31.440 --> 0:00:34.680
<v Speaker 1>a hash scruel education provides the skills needed to get

0:00:34.680 --> 0:00:38.680
<v Speaker 1>a good job. Six out of ten think vocational schools

0:00:38.800 --> 0:00:42.720
<v Speaker 1>are good, but the vast majority of young people set

0:00:42.720 --> 0:00:46.160
<v Speaker 1>and think the best preparation is job experience rather than

0:00:46.320 --> 0:00:50.800
<v Speaker 1>a degree. Experts are distressed by the skepticism about the

0:00:50.880 --> 0:00:53.320
<v Speaker 1>value of a college degree. And I'll bet the AP

0:00:53.560 --> 0:00:58.320
<v Speaker 1>hated the report that young people's esteem for practical experience

0:00:58.800 --> 0:01:02.640
<v Speaker 1>is shared by the administration, which is pushed to expand

0:01:02.680 --> 0:01:06.720
<v Speaker 1>apprenticeship programs. Now, what the alarmed experts miss are the

0:01:06.840 --> 0:01:10.960
<v Speaker 1>reasons for these results. Many colleges, despite the ridiculous price tag,

0:01:11.240 --> 0:01:15.560
<v Speaker 1>are nothing more than liberal indoctrination centers. Young people are

0:01:15.640 --> 0:01:18.199
<v Speaker 1>figuring out that it makes no sense to go deep

0:01:18.240 --> 0:01:22.280
<v Speaker 1>into debt for useless liberal degrees that don't prepare them

0:01:22.319 --> 0:01:27.720
<v Speaker 1>for real life like degrees in anti corruption rule of law. Anyway,

0:01:27.800 --> 0:01:29.880
<v Speaker 1>all this is not alarming to me. It's very hopeful.
