Schweppe: Joe Biden’s Campaign Against Student Choice Obsessive

During the last presidential race, then-candidate Joe Biden pledged to “strengthen college as a reliable pathway to the middle class.”
But after four years of dogmatic crusades against alternative higher education options, it’s clear that campaign promise was malarkey.
Unfortunately, President Biden’s real intentions have been laid bare.
There was never any intention to “strengthen” college.
Biden would rather strengthen the status quo. Instead of disrupting the broken higher education model, the Biden administration has sought to prop up failing conventional colleges and universities, while arbitrarily harassing and penalizing innovative schools that provide opportunity and choice for students.
While Biden and his appointees signaled their antipathy for non-conforming higher education options even before taking office, few could have predicted how brazen their attacks would be.
