a clear distinction of those two visions and support the one that we believe is important, public educati education, the opportunity for all. >> dennis, it's great to have you on the program. thank you so much. alex, we can talk one thing about wisconsin and it maybe being back in play but there's another question about whether or not it's going to give some other republican governors the mojo to do the same thing, despite the fact it didn't work in ohio, maybe for the reasons major pointed out. could it have those implications? >> democrats are saying it won't. they're arguing no governor would want to go through what scott walker went through. i think a young, a governor looking to make a name for himself will look at walker who will emerge from this stronger than ever as a national republican and be canonized as walker, the union slayer and they might want to do that themselves, even if it hurts them legislatively in the short term. mitt romney is coming out saying the public is on their side on this issue of unions. >> major, to pick up on another point from dennis, which is that this

budgets, and 40% of the states and the territories have cut a lot of the money that they spend on educatis the biggest standout being california and georgia. but interestingly, that is not where we saw the biggest individual increases. the big winner there is the university of fort lauderdale in florida which is a private school. and tuition there jumped 160%. >> oh, my. >> and that is incredible, and the biggest public school increase was at the university of district of columbia with the tuition there, fredricka, almost more than doubled. it is shocking. >> those are incredible numbes.s there are thousands of colleges, across the country and universities, and any bargains out there with prices going down? >> small. three schools that have tuition s under $1,000, and the first one is the haskell indian nations university in kansas and also berea college in kentucky. that is the cheapest. but if you want aer ba gain in terms of the quality of education that you can get for the money you have to pay, and u.s. world reports says to go with the big boys. the top schools include harvard and y
