Are Big Changes in Store for Education After Trump Victory
Listen to the Episode
The November 5th elections are expected to have an impact on almost every aspect of government and public policy, including education. In this episode, hosts Pedro Noguera and Louis Freedberg take a deeper dive into what promises President-elect Trump and the GOP have made regarding both pre-K through 12 education and post-secondary education.
Our guests are conservative scholar and analyst Frederick Hess, director of education policy studies at the American Enterprise Institute, and co-author with Noguera of “A Search for Common Ground: Conversations about the Toughest Questions in K-12 Education.” and higher education expert Steven Brint, Professor of Sociology and Public Policy at the University of California at Riverside, author of “Trump and His Allies Are Preparing to Overhaul Higher Education.” Our guests suggest that the federal impact on education is likely to be far more significant than many have anticipated.
