EdNext Podcast: Which Parents Want a Four-Year College for their Children?

In the 2017 EdNext poll on school reform, parents were asked whether they would rather send their child to a two-year college, a four-year college, or neither. When respondents are given information about the costs and benefits of the different options, this changes the decisions of some respondents, but not others.

EdNext editor-in-chief Marty West sits down with senior editor Paul E. Peterson to discuss how different groups respond.

The EdNext Podcast is available on iTunes, Google Play, Soundcloud, Stitcher and here every Wednesday
