Study Shows Americans' Confidence in Higher Education is Dropping

Amy Laitinen was quoted in Ed Surge about Varying Degrees, a New America survey on the public opinion of higher education. 

“Today’s economic reality is that having some type of education beyond high school is critical to getting a well-paying job,” Amy Laitinen, director of higher education at New America, said in a press announcement. However, the report reads, “the results show that people are aware that the American Dream is increasingly out of reach.”
