and he has also taken purdue into new directions. you know, moved to provide a whole new set of answers as to what should be done in higher education. and john hickenlooper, among other things, is the only brew master since sam adams to become the governor of a state. is that right? >> i think that's correct. >> yeah, okay. he was an entrepreneur, small businessman, brew master, a mayor of denver, an old friend and now the governor of the state of colorado. let me start off with what is the disjuncture we're facing now. as we slowly come out of the recession, there's been a mismatch. there are people looking for work and people they need to hire, and yet they don't align. let me start with you, zoe, and what they've been doing, what colorado has been doing and what purdue and indiana have been doing to get a better match between skills in the workforce. >> let me frame the issue this way. which is that most of the people in this room probably, certainly many of us, have been part of encouraging people to get a college degree for deca

i think the purdue example is instructive.ch daniels in some ways is an extreme test case of a politically empowered president. i suppose it's possible to envision in a sort of small not well known private college president having more power, but in a big consequential institution like purdue, you couldn't come in with more backing than he had and yet it ends up being as any kind of thing is a negotiation with the faculty. so, is there -- you kind of framed your remarks, fredrik, towards the faculty, you said assess or be assessed. is there a more positive message that could be given to them as in if you're serious about your teaching, this will help you be better at your job? >> sure. i mean, again -- so i frame it -- one of the frustrations for me is that almost no one of the people who object to assessment likes the status quo when you sort of break things down. i say do you like the news and world report, no, i hate it. then the reason that the u.s. news and world report exists because parents and students don't feel like

but things we are doing at purdue is starting a high school of our own in inner city indianapolis. it is a mirror image of this poly tech institute. i confess seeing if we can contribute something to a high school education that does exactly what we expect -- we imagine a number of graduates will go straight from high school to work. but the number one objective honestly is to go back t something else we talked about before. the pool of first generation and minority students when are even remotely likely to succeed at your university, in our state, is heart breakingly small. i am tired of waiting on the k-12 system. this high school, if we can make it work, and we never started a high school so i don't know. but if we can make it work, the one rule i established is in every diploma of every graduate there is a direct admission to purdue university because we cannot wait anymore. every year at this time i check and the total number o african-american graduates in the state of indiana at the purdue median, and we are a land grant school, we have high standards but we are not a highly

isaacson: how are you doing that at purdue? mr.aniels: we are doing things that we think would be useful to modernize the education for the economy. one of our 10 colleges just got the first certification ever for basedalled residency degree, progress on your own rate. we think education will much more closely resemble the world of work. worry about our graduates. lawmakers for a long time, and each class leaving get hired very well. i think we have to be really appreciative for the efforts described. everywhere i look, there are jobs waiting. i don't know there are enough of , for the right quality 16 middle-class society we have had. of constant optimism about our economic future. not to get too metaphysical, but the confidence in democratic institutions. to me, clearly, years of stagnant, low growth could not produce a situation like what we have. you will not have the america we have known staggering along. america, evenic recovering from recession. had we had a vigorous recovery, i think we would still be wearing about these p

. >> one of the proposals from both parties, but obama has embraced it, is to make things like purdue poly tech, or a two-year community or trade school as common and free as high school was made a hundred years ago. does that make sense? >> it would if we weren't $19 trillion in debt and counting. >> do you think it will add to the debt? >> of course. there is no free. so socializing those costs, i'm not saying all such ideas are bad. you know, purdue university, we're in the third year of what will be at least a four-year tuition freeze. self-imposed. nobody made us do it. i think of them as my classmates, the cohort that graduates next month, and the one after that, and at least one after that, will leave a purdue that costs less than it did when they entered it, because room and board and books cost less now than when they went in the system. so there's scholarship across the spectrum, just like this room, that flooding any marketplace, same thing happens in health care. flooding the marketplace with subsidy dollars did not lead to less expensive education. the system pocketed muc

since 2010, purdue says, it has "reformulated oxycontin with abuse-deterrent properties." and it now refers physicians to new guidelines for opioid- prescribing from the centers for disease control. when releasing the guidelines in march, director tom frieden of the c.d.c. stated: "the science of opioids for chronic pain is clear: for the vast majority of patients, the known, serious, and too-often-fatal risks far outweigh the unproven and transient benefits." >> i wouldn't be able to stop 'em right away. that's for sure. because i'm physically addicted, not, you know, not addicted where i take more than the dose that they order. but i'm physically dependent on them. and that would mean a lot to me if they were to just, you know, stop the doses all of the sudden. >> there's a certain amount of anger on the part of physicians who feel trapped. we have a large cohort now of patients who are taking these medications long term, and on the other hand we're being told, "well, you guys are at fault because you're writing all these opioids." well, what are we to do? >> reporter: o

purdue university, we are in the third year of what is a four-year tuition freeze. self-imposed. nobody made us do it. the graduates will leave a purdue that cost less than when they entered it because books are cheaper now also than they were. there are a lot people in the system can do. it is well established there is scholarships across the country and flooding any marketplace with subsidy dollars does not lead to less expensive education. the system pocketed much of the money and passed the cost on to the intended beneficiaries of the subsidies. so i don't think that is a fruitful solution. >> and since you are short on your answers, and tom i will keep pounding on you, you are the co-chair that zoe helped support for the marco foundation. we at the aspen institute are hosting that. you are the co-chair with senator mark warner on something that ties into everything we are discussing which is how do you have an economy and a social contract that deals with what you call the 1099 economy where people are not just going to a factory at age 20 and dying at the age of 60. c conne
