Abstract | Former Vice President Joe Biden recently released the Biden Plan for Education beyond High School, which details several policy proposals that would take higher education in the wrong direction. The recommended policies would make higher education costlier and degrees less meaningful--all while pouring billions of dollars into a broken system. The American people need bold policy proposals to fix problems both new and persistent. Getting education financing under control by reining in federal spending and making space for alternative post-secondary arrangements to flourish should be top priorities for all policymakers. Regulatory reform coupled with accreditation reform would open the doors of innovation and opportunity in higher education by creating a meaningful pathway between education and work. This brief's key takeaways include: (1) America's higher education needs bold reform to fix systemic and new problems; (2) The Left's plans for higher education take college learning in the wrong direction, making degrees meaningless and tuition astronomically high; and (3) Students need approaches that will make higher education more affordable and better tailored to their needs in order to be successful in the workforce.
