While I was knocking doors last week, a lady asked what I would do to support higher education. I noted that while Utah may be at the bottom in per pupil spending, it is at the top in having an educated workforce.
As I drove home, I thought how higher education plays into a strong economy. Many of the best-paying jobs require college degrees. Obviously, if we want to attract those industries, we must maintain a great college system.
I'm open to ideas on this one. Do we simply say we have a model higher education system, or are there things we should be doing to strengthen it?
