    Higher Education Budget Cuts: Higher Education's $400B Nightmare Begins

    Higher Education Budget Cuts: Higher Education's $400B Nightmare Begins. Join us live as we break down Donald Trump’s latest spending bill — who it benefits, who it hurts, and how it could reshape America’s future, notably higher education. The proposed legislation will significantly alter who will be able to go to college, where they will be able to go, and what career paths they will be able to take. We'll touch on: The proposed cuts, New plans for student loan repayment, Why should you care about higher education, and how will it affect your life. The proposed budget cuts are not just affecting prospective students; they also affect the US's place in medical and science research and accessibility to cutting-edge technology. If we do not create it, someone else will.
