Wrong Ideas about Money • There is a “right” amount • The only way to get better results is spend more money • We can get the results we need without spending more money
Right Questions about Money • What do we need from higher education? • What can we do better with the money we have? • What do we need that justifies additional funds?
It takes more than money… • Support K-12 Common Core State Standards for Math and English • Insist that postsecondary institutions set ambitious goals to increase the number of students completing degrees and certificates • Encourage students to study full-time or nearly full-time. Too much work while pursuing postsecondary education is a poison pill • Support higher tuition in community colleges in California, while insisting on sufficient state and federal student aid and user-friendly application processes.
