that's the number of undergraduates seeing their student loan rates double in july. all those numbers, now it's time for you to tell us your analysis. one of the questions is what will happen to get to 270? you can play the what if game. hit that button right there. and then you can start telling us what if obama loses ohio and florida? you start the game and hit that there. you can say, okay, we'll give romney florida and also ohio. that gives him 244 electoral votes. what does that mean for president obama? let's say he takes nevada and ohio, as chuck todd says because of the hispanic vote. then he needs pennsylvania, democrats have won since 1992. that gives him 266. all he needs is virginia or north carolina and he gets the seal to become the president of the united states. then you can submit your idea, you can sending it to us. we may put it on air and share your thoughts on what your analysis is. chris, if you like to play along

to the graduates i want to congratulate you on completing your undergraduate education. each and every one of you are about to join a very distinguished fraternity. my dear friends and colleagues brandon scott off remind me that a degree from st. mary's is not your average degree. he actually says it's more than i'd like to hear that. a degree from st. mary's is a degree from md's public honors college that comes with the increased level of responsibility of caring for the tradition of excellence of those who have come before you and carried that degree into the real world. 50 days ago i had the pleasure of meeting and speaking with many of you at your celebration. and during my visit i had the pleasure of having dinner with your class president and opportunity trustee. i must say our future is in great hands. as i made my trip back it was very clear to me that you all are extremely well prepared to move on to the next chapt anywhere your lives whether bit the real world or furtherering your education. i was also very impressed with your collective awares in of the demro

similarly the cls program has done the same thing for the undergraduate students. the final point i want to make is the national security education program's flagship program because while it has some very promising k-12 pilots in place, it has totally reinvented the way that foreign languages are taught today in our universities setting three as the logical outcome for a series of programs and training models that don't even require the undergraduate learner to be a major in that field. together the nestle group and those supported by title 6 and fullbright hayes are low-cost, high-quality proven models that we believe are scalable. they're working in a few places right now that could work in a lot of places with the same level of success. thank you for the opportunity to comment. >> thank you very much for your statement. mr. lawless. >> yes? >> what are some of the barriers u.s. companies face when attempting to enter overseas markets? and how does the process of localization assist companies in succeeding in these markets? >> right, so there is a difference bet

she created a committee of undergraduate women to research ku alumni who established careers outside of the home. as she worked with aws she became frustrated as the women spent the majority of their time and their energy administering and creating the parietal rules. taylor felt this took the students' attention away from their academic pursuits and resulted at fencing at windmills because the women who didn't want to follow the rules found ways around them. so taylor set out to dismantle the regulation apparatus at ku. history has recognized the dissolution of parietals, but they've been recognized as a student driven phenomenon in the '60s mostly because historians have focused on the chaos of the mid to late portion of the decade. indeed by looking at news reports this seems like a very reasonable explanation. in 1966 when the aws passed a motion to allow all but freshmen women to have keys to their residence, the vote produced a storm of protests from parents and citizens across the state. historian beth bailey has taken a close look at the chancellor's correspondence, whereby p

i wouldn't want to read the fact that he's just so -- such an undergraduate or below undergraduate in terms of himself, in terms of the way he is leading in yemen. would you want to be the leader of the ttp when you read all these documents? frankly, the documents that -- being apolitical about the documents is a political asset if you like, from my perspective, as a personal opinion, don't do it. frankly the documents are -- they speak for themselves, and they're way more powerful -- without doing anything, just to put them out there. >> you mentioned the documents showed there's been criticism of operations that were either aimed at civilians, resulted in major civilian casualties, can you elaborate with respect to any reference about criticism or approval of operations that are aimed at western civilians? or that resulted in major civilian casualties? we mentioned the new york city incident. he criticizes the attacker for breaking his oath. was there any reference about -- i'm curious about the quality of bin ladin's writings. >> in one section, when he's putting the centralization

and has been the basic text which so many undergraduates, thousands of undergraduates in our country have formed their view of the vietnam war. his managerial study of the american history foreign relations keeps him in the top rank of our scholars. his book entitled "lbj in vietnam: a different kind of war," creates an almost perfect perch from which george can review ed drea's book. and that's what he's going to do for us now. george?

. >> did he actually get an undergraduate degree anywhere? >> no. he didn't. and you didn't need an undergraduate degree to get into harvard law in those days. he did go to a german school for a while. and at that time it would have been a cross somewhere in between high school and college, though, he got some post-high school training, if you will, but he never had a b.a. >> how many of the -- i know he has two daughters. did you meet either one of them? >> i did. i met them in the 1960s. we went up to cape cod to the summer home which is still in the family. and we met susan and elizabeth. susan's husband was already dead at that time, but we met e.b.'s husband. elizabeth was always known as e.b., and at that point -- my favorite story is we were sitting outside on an august afternoon on cape cod and the mosquitos are eating us alive, but they didn't dare come near her. she was totally oblivious to them. she was quite a character. both of the daughters made quite good records for themselves. one is a lawyer, one is an economist. >> there's a lot you can talk

. >> chris, that kind of speaks to the question about what the value is of the typical undergraduate degree, which i'm guessing is what tyler had. is there something that employers are not finding enough or that they don't have the confidence in what the degrees are from another did degreed-granting university where they want a tangible set of skills that you guys are certified? >> if you think of having a computer for two years without updating the software on it, most of what you have on there is out of date. the pace of technology is so quick that for an individual that gets -- i still consider it very valuable, an undergraduate degree. to serve active duty in the military and come back in four, six, eight years, much of what you learned in college is ultimately, and unfortunately out of date. so information technology vendors like the comp a-plus certification program show individuals have timely and in demand skills in today's technology. when tyler received these skills, it shows he was capable and aware of what technology was in use today. so while the undergraduate's concept

american higher education has to reinstitute foreign language proficiency as a graduation for every undergraduate going through our system. 100 years ago that was true in every college in america from technical schools to liberal arts schools to research universities and today i don't think it's true for more than a dozen or two dozen in our whole country. that's the only thing that's going to change the pipeline and assure that the panel we just heard from is going to have the future language speakers that we need to protect our country. in concluding, i wanted to part from my written statement just a little bit because your committee is focused also on the district of columbia. 20 blocks from here my daughter runs a clinic, a pediatric clinic under a federally qualified health clinic. they've had over 600,000 patient visits last year and 95% of her patients language is mainly spanish. -- be an effective doctor in your service corps was to be able to speak to american patients in their own language. >> both programs. >> thank you very much. dr. davidson, please proceed with your statement. >> th
