WEBVTT - Rush Limbaugh Apr 07, 2020

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

0:00:02.880 --> 0:00:06.120
<v Speaker 1>the a P and the National Opinion Research and it's

0:00:06.200 --> 0:00:09.360
<v Speaker 1>nork and the experts are said to be alarmed at

0:00:09.360 --> 0:00:12.119
<v Speaker 1>the results. Now, according to the poll, a majority of

0:00:12.200 --> 0:00:16.960
<v Speaker 1>young Americans between thirteen and twenty nine agree that college

0:00:17.120 --> 0:00:20.280
<v Speaker 1>can put people on a path to success, but only

0:00:20.320 --> 0:00:25.000
<v Speaker 1>about agree that a four year degree adequately prepares people

0:00:25.040 --> 0:00:28.800
<v Speaker 1>for today's economy. Now here's the part that experts find alarming.

0:00:28.880 --> 0:00:32.240
<v Speaker 1>Half of these young Americans think that a has scruel

0:00:32.400 --> 0:00:35.240
<v Speaker 1>education provides the skills needed to get a good job.

0:00:35.960 --> 0:00:39.960
<v Speaker 1>Six out of ten think vocational schools are good, but

0:00:40.080 --> 0:00:43.199
<v Speaker 1>the vast majority of young people set and think the

0:00:43.280 --> 0:00:48.320
<v Speaker 1>best preparation is job experience rather than a degree. Experts

0:00:48.320 --> 0:00:51.280
<v Speaker 1>are distressed by the skepticism about the value of a

0:00:51.280 --> 0:00:54.480
<v Speaker 1>college degree. And I'll bet the AP hated the report

0:00:54.960 --> 0:00:59.639
<v Speaker 1>that young people's esteem for practical experience is shared by

0:00:59.640 --> 0:01:04.480
<v Speaker 1>the administration, which is pushed to expand apprenticeship programs. Now,

0:01:04.480 --> 0:01:08.360
<v Speaker 1>what the alarmed experts miss are the reasons for these results.

0:01:08.360 --> 0:01:11.960
<v Speaker 1>Many colleges, despite the ridiculous price tag, are nothing more

0:01:12.000 --> 0:01:16.399
<v Speaker 1>than liberal indoctrination centers. Young people are figuring out that

0:01:16.440 --> 0:01:19.520
<v Speaker 1>it makes no sense to go deep into debt for

0:01:19.800 --> 0:01:22.959
<v Speaker 1>useless liberal degrees that don't prepare them for real life

0:01:23.000 --> 0:01:27.920
<v Speaker 1>like degrees in anti corruption rule of law. Anyway, all

0:01:28.000 --> 0:01:29.840
<v Speaker 1>this is not alarming to me. It's very hopeful.
