I thought I heard a snippet somewhere that he also plans to require universities to show what kind of jobs/pay graduates in different departments get. Maybe I was dreaming this.

That would be GREAT. Then kids would be able to see how previous students in their disciplines have fared job-wise. This would probably dissuade at least some people from going after useless degrees (and going deep into debt to do so).

— Give Prospective Students More Meaningful and Useful Information about Schools and Programs

Providing prospective students with more transparent information about the institutions and programs they are considering will enable them to make better decisions about their education. Although the Department of Education currently provides students with useful institution-level data—such as annual costs, average earnings, and graduation rates—Congress should ensure students have the program-level earnings and outcome data they need to make better informed choices about potential careers and educational opportunities.
