The Donald & The Deans. Oh, if ever there was a crowd that needed to hear the words, "you're fired," this is it.

objectives include... discouraging borrowing by liberal arts majors.

Unbelievable! Surgical takedown! Awesome!

[Kirkwood]

This is a good start, but needs to go further.

[Rusty0604]

This all sounds good to me.

This is an excellent idea - a greater emphasis on vocational skills and training is also needed (this is a reason some companies locate elsewhere or want to hire foreign workers...basic things like knowing how to sew, use a saw and hammer, etc.). This higher education cartel needs to be broken. A lot of people are being awarded degrees who had no business being admitted to begin with - they lack the most basic common sense. They take out massive loans and then expect someone else to pay for it and don’t feel they should be responsible for it...indicating they don’t have any sense and their degree wasn’t worth the paper it was printed on. I don’t like having to pay back loans either...but I chose to take them out and didn’t take out more than I could afford...this concept of basic responsibility is lost on many.

WOW! This is the most sensible program I’ve heard any candidate / President say ever. I’m stunned. After decades of liberal nonsense -— and that includes GWB for inflicting upon us TSA and Homeland Security -— this is the first thing that is based upon individual responsibility.

Add two years to high school, with the reward of graduating with an associates degree (core classes). Those who want to stop after 12 years can do so and go to work, or to trade school. Colleges then would be two years, focusing on their majors to earn their bachelors.

It would save the parents a ton of money. The students would be a little more mature when the finally go off to college. It would probably wash out the non-serious students.

Does anyone get that this is also a disassemblage of Obamacare?

Do you remember that all student loans to private banks were essentially made illegal ( you could ask, but they won't take the risk ) by the fact that Obamacare took over all student loans and were using the high interest rates they were charging to offset the cost of Obamacare?

Thank you team Trump! Brilliant!!!

[1Old Pro]

The best way for kids to find jobs and pay their debt is to have a robust economy - not a socialist great recession masterminded by Hillary and Obama.

[hinckley buzzard]

Launching his own policy proposals to fix the student debt debacle is a brilliant move. Making the universities shoulder some of the risk makes great sense. This will get attention from a new population of people who haven't seen much from Trump so far.

[Mad Dawgg]

Actually if you really want liberal heads to explode just take up Bernie's call for Free college only instead say we will just give everyone vouchers but we are going to do it for K-12 schools also.

Watch how fast the left would crush that program.
