so, secretary devos, ladies first, maybe not a good team this time but i know you have a lot of ideasobviously, you have been the secretary of education, you have experience across the country. share with us the big ideas for moving forward on big education. >> thank you to governor hutchinson for having us here today, and convening this ideas summit. it's really an honor to participate. i believe the big idea for education continues to be, and is even more today, the notion of introducing education freedom into our k-12 system. and by education freedom, i mean something broader than school choice because i think it involves more than just school buildings and infrastructure. and what we think of a school today. when you consider the fact that the system we have -- that most students are a part of, is essentially the same as the system that was founded 100 75 years ago in the early industrial age to put students in, and send them through and turn them out the other end ready to go on to factory lines. it is essentially unchanged from 135 years ago. -- 175 years ago. it is interesting

we saw devo samuel carted off the field but that was as quiet as the stadium got, yesterday. what if i told you there could be another quarterback directing the niners offense this thursday. not kidding. he suffered an oblique injury, that is the muscle from the rib to the waistline. he is listed as day-to-day. sentences go place thursday night at seattle. if purdy cannot go, oakland native josh johnson will get the start. the 50 year veteran has played for 14 different teams in his career. the 49ers also announced that star receiver devo samuel, after suffering a knee sprain an ankle sprain is expected to be back for the regular season after suffering a knee sprain and ankle sprain. that is about as good of news as the team could have asked for when devo left on the cart yesterday. troy taylor, the stanford football era has begun. coming from sacrament to state and made them a power. regular 30-8 of the last four season. now it is all about cardinal red. there was a time, though, when taylor was a quarterback at cal. his senior year, he led the pac-10 in total offense . conf

so secretary devos, ladies first. maybe not a good thing that it is ladies first this time but i know you have a lot of ideas. obviously have been secretary of education. you have experience across the country. share with the some of the big ideas that you see for getting as, moving forward on education. >> well, thank thank you , heidi. let me first start by saint thank you give governor hutchinson for having us here today and for convening this ideas summit. it's really an honor to be here and participate. i believe the big idea for education continues to be andy's even more today the notion of introducing education freedom into our k-12 years, our k-12 system. and by education freedom i mean something broader than school choice. because i think it involves more than just school buildings and infrastructure and what we think of as school today. when you consider the fact that the system that most students are a part of is essentially the same as a as a system thats founded 175 years ago in the early industrial age t

early on, secretary devos said she was going to prioritize individual students. instead, by removing these safeguards and accountability, they left them even more vulnerable to the unscrupulous for-profit colleges. the devos education department even refused to provide defrauded borrowers with loan discharges they deserved under brother defense. after secretary devos' undefensible policies were struck down in the federal court, she continued to refuse to act even after the court ruled against her, allowing a backlog to piddle up -- d. to build up -- thereon this -- to 230,000 student borrowers who languished under mountains of debt that secretary devos would not remedy in any way. the trump-devos education department left borrowers hopeless and buried in debt while the taxpayers footed the bills. as i said, i've called for more accountability over the for-profit college industry for a long time. luckily, the biden administration is listening and reversed the course done under the trump administration. i hope it continues to be the case. unlike the trump-devos dep

when will we learn more about devo? samuel's last that we heard they just opened up the locker room a minute ago. it sounds like no fracture. they're not sure sprain ish and it could be a high ankle sprain, which could mean significant amount of time. but the important thing it does sound like no fracture for devo samuel, so maybe they get him back during spring ish brain is a bit of a really good news. not exactly a medical term on my part, but yes, hopefully not broken and then short week because they played on thursday . correct. alright joe. thank you coming up in sports. thank you. 49ers fans who didn't make it down to levi stadium gathered at sports bars around the bay area to watch today's game. one of them isn't far from where tom brady grew up. that's where we find ktvu is amanda quintana. she's live. burlingame tonight with a look at why this was a special game for fans. amanda yes. well as you guys have been mentioning a lot of really fun storylines to this matchup tonight. of course party that rookie against

secretary devos, you spent a lot of time working on title ix and really tackling due process. tell us why that was important and where it stands in the impact that you think it's making today. >> thanks, heidi. before i do that i would just like to comment one second on our conversation you previously. about higher education. because american higher education is the envy of the world, but we have to continue to innovate and change, and i agree with bill about the necessity for thinking more broadly about what higher education actually is. we need to be talking about lifelong education and viewing it as a lifelong pursuit, not just a four-year college or university after high school as being the only pathway. and i really give credit to both of these governors for their efforts to break down that barrier. and i think a lot of it goes to around accrediting and accreditation and the gatekeepers that the creditors are. they are basically, you know, they ensure that the competition remains very contained, and so that is an area i think that to be tackled and addressed ines a big wa

cnn's arian devoe joins me now. good morning. quite a surprise coming yesterday evening.is behind justice roberts' ruling? >> supreme court is under the spotlight again. remember, this district court in november struck down this policy, and gave a deadline until tomorrow. the biden administration was okay with that, but it infuriated the republican-based, and raced in, wanted to become a part of this lawsuit and we want this program to remain in place pending appeal. here's what roberts did. basically put a temporary pause on that deadline, but it's really not a ruling on the merits. he basically just wanted to preserve the status quo to give the justices a little breathing room, a little time to digest all of this before they issue this important order. >> so did the court asked administration to respond by five p.m. today. do you have an inclination what the response would be? we saw what the press secretary was saying yesterday during the briefing at the white house. >> that's a really quick deadline. supreme court knows it's got to move quickly. the biden administrati
