Remarks by the President at "focus on Education" Event - the White House
.... And I know we need to increase access to higher education in rural and urban areas by eliminating financial aid rules that discourage distance learning. What I'm telling you is this: Listen, the world we live in is changing. Jobs are changing, people are learning more over the Internet. We've got to be wise about how we spend your money to reflect the changing times. The work force rules ought to reflect tomorrow, not yesterday. Our community college systems ought to be supportive because they're good for helping the students get the skills for the jobs of today, not yesterday. What I'm telling you is that I've got a vision that recognizes we're living in a changing world and we're going to use our assets in wise ways to make sure America is a hopeful place for everybody.
