[quote=Anonymous][quote]The “Accountability in Higher Education and Access Through Demand-Driven Workforce Pell” rule, once implemented, will [b]require undergraduate programs currently eligible for federal student aid funds to show that their graduates are earning more than individuals with high school diplomas[/b]. The rule would also [b]require graduate and professional programs to show that their graduates are earning more than graduates of bachelor’s degree programs[/b].[/quote] I don't support the first bolded part. Undergrad should be a time to explore and make mistakes, not vocational training. But the second bolded part is good policy. Graduate education, even in the arts or liberal arts, has to be vocational in nature. The cost and opportunity costs are too high - it's not fair to put people through it without a good salary on the other end.[/quote]
