So the results are in. Donald Trump has won the US Presidential Election.
Here are some quotes by the president-elect on education:
I’m going to look into colleges… We’re going to do something with regard to really smart financing.
-Time, 8 Feb 2016
They’re in college – they’re doing well but they’ve got student loans up to the neck. They’re swimming in these loans.
-United Press International, 26 May 2016
These student loans are probably one of the only things that the government shouldn’t make money from and yet it does.
-Politico, 13 Feb 2016
I’m not concerned about the kids growing up in wealthy communities, where high property taxes have allowed them to build great schools, hire the best teachers, and provide all the supplies they need. Those schools are doing fine.
-The Washington Post, 3 Nov 2015
Nothing (is) more important than higher education and education in general.
-The Hill, 11 Nov 2015
We’ll only know in the next four years how much the education scene in America will change.
