President Barack Obama gave the State of the Union address, on Tuesday, Jan. 25, 2011. He talked about various issues from jobs, education to investment in science, research and technology.
Nonetheless, an area of interest to me is education. He said, "America has fallen to the 9th position in the proportion of young people with college degree." The president also emphasized on the need for increased respect for teachers and the role of parents in ensuring that kids stay the course until graduation.
He also stated that his administration has made college affordable for millions of students "by eliminating taxpayers' subsidies that went to banks."
