Washington Journal Fall College Tour - Join the Conversation

As part of the C-SPAN bus’s BIG TEN ® tour this fall, Washington Journal will interview university officials from around the country.

We will discuss public policy issues that impact higher education; college costs and student debt; university admission policies, curricula, and academic standards; and how universities are preparing graduates for careers and adult life.
