Episode Description

We hear the narrative a lot recently about how college isn't worth it any more. A recent poll showed only 1 in 4 Americans still thinks higher education is really important. Yet, here in Utah, enrollment in college is up 4%. We are currently educating more than 200,000 college students. Where is the disconnect? KSL Newsradio's Amanda Dickson asked her guests on A Woman's View. Her guests this week include Kimberly Gardner, elementary and middle school teacher with 33 years experience and chairperson of the Colonial Heritage Festival, Ganel-Lyn Condie, popular speaker, host, author and mental health advocate, and Kelli Pierce, digital media associate with the R Street Institute.
