i attend add technical high school. i studied automotive technology for four years. but it was in that school where a teacher saw in me the potential to become a teacher. she tapped me on the shoulder, you know what, miguel, it was an art teacher, you are using your drawings to talk about things that you want to improve. have you ever considered becoming an art teacher? so i graduated with the ability to go into automotive technology, or go to college. i went to college. i did well. our school should give students options. it's not to say we are creating weupblgets. we -- widgets. we need to give our students options. as an educator and father, i'll challenge anyone who says we shouldn't be giving students opportunities to excel whether it's the workforce, college or career. we want to give our students options. we shouldn't limit graduating with options to students at technical schools only. every student should be learning in-demand skills. it's time to raise the bar. i said that when i was commissioner of education in connecticut. it's not just on our technical sch

the biden-harris administration is calling for total reimagining of the high school experience. ou know, when the pandemic ended with sending kids back to school, as a father i can tell you too i was dismayed that the schools went back to how they were before the than demic. we have an opportunityty to embrace the disruption and evolve our schools to give our students workforce exposure and to give them internship or externship opportunities yet we rows and to the systems that we had in our schools two pandemics ago, right? we have an opportunity here. and i have to say, the four-year degree or bust mentality has got to go in this country. it has got to go. i'm a true believer in career training. it was in that school where teacher saw in me the potential to potentially become a teacher. she tapped me on my shoulder, miguel, you know what, you're using your drawings to talk about things that you want to improve. have you ever considered becoming an art teacher. so i graduated with the ability to go into automotive technology or go to college and i did well. our schools should giv

for everybody a bit college educated, high school educated, less than high school educated. and then what happened in the eighties is that the decline in marriage really stabilized among the college educated class and and it kept falling everybody else. and so now college educated women are actually the most likely to be married and college educated mothers are by far the most likely mothers be married. and so, you know, this is where i lean into economics to explain why did things keep changing outside the college educated class? well, what diverged in the eighties and nineties was really the economic situation between college educated adults and everyone else mean. you and i have had many conversations about this in broad strokes college workers continue to do well in the labor market. their earnings continue to rise steadily. i meanwhile, non-college workers, we've seen employment rates over the past 30 years fall among non-college men. we've seen their wages stagnate. let's say i know people debate on exactly what happened, but they they stagnated. they fell relative to

what about in high schools? are you finding that high schools are not teaching what we call the classics today? no, certainly not. and they're censoring and editing some of these classics as well. the clearest case of this would be huckleberry finn over the last several decades. now you've seen moves to ban huck finn because it deals with the issue of slavery and you've seen calls to censor politically incorrect words out of the book. and this is so ironic when you get to huckleberry finn, because huckleberry finn is an indictment of slavery. huckleberry finn is an indictment of racism. but the philistines who are unfortunately leading our schools and our universities today, don't seem to understand that. i would be surprised if they ever crack the spine of the book themselves. they've just been told by somebody else that it's racist and therefore terrible, and we have to get rid of it. so unfortunately, now you're seeing all sorts of bizarre, frankly obscene in and pornographic books creeping into schools. one
