US Education Secretary: Arizona 'Shortsighted' In Defunding Public Colleges
Secretary of Education John King visited the Valley on Thursday to chat with college students about inequity in higher education. King stopped by Phoenix College to speak with administrators and Latino students on what the biggest issues are facing minority students. The administrators suggested a lower application fee for Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, or DACA, program. They also said a lack of state funding has made it harder to distribute resources. King says the Arizona Legislature’s defunding of public colleges will hurt future students.
