The federal governments job to determine what your mission may be. And certain if youre a private forprofit, were not here to dictate your organizations mission. But a forprofit institution has no special right to federal funding. And if youre going to receive billions of dollars in federal subsidies, we think its reasonable as we endeavor to reauthorize the Higher Education act that we tie some reasonable Public Policy strings to those dollars. And all we are saying is that we want institutions of Higher Learning, and especially their leadership, to wake up every morning and think not first about profits, not think first about how theyre going to market to find more customers, but think about access and affordability. And what were saying is that different institutions may have Different Missions. A Community College has a different mission from a Training Institute and a fouryear institution has a different mission than a graduate institution. And thats all fine. And thats why weve e
Whole thing is jerry disabled. Just trying to put this into perspective, i travel a lot and was in new york meeting said dave the news the little tabloid a story in the quarter the corner sat in queens new york the judge the critics thought he was too liberal and he was mugged on his way to his car then he said today it is unusual but i have an opening statement.

[laughter] that is what we do with the polls. Retry and i will tell you is it works like that little old he they keep beating them up until they get the message that is why at the end of the day i become less cynical because American Public opinion really does referee the worst instincts of behavior.

Does it seem there are more and more recalls going on these days . First to sue at the nyse where king digital is trading kind of, sue. Absolutely. Youre right. King digital a very highly anticipated ipo. I think its fair to say that although the game they produce may be sweet the stock has soured. The ipo did not go as well as many people anticipated. I think thats an understatement. I guess the question is why . Was it the fundamental with the ipo . The pricing and the number of shares out there or is it Something Else .

Thank you for joining us on this monday. Im betty nguyen. We want to begin with Severe Weather across country. Mu multiple tornados have been reported from nebraska to iowa and the threat does continue. There is serious damage reported in several towns in nebraska.

And victory in a referendum which could see two regions pledge loyalty to moscow. Gun fire opening on crowds. And a grand reopening of the Washington Monument. An Iowa Police Officer nearly getting crushed by a falling tree. All that a highscale rescue from the top of the sydney opera house. Police say the man was simply drunk. And the parents of newborn twins born holding hands. I started tearing up immediately. If anyone believed marco rubio was on the fence about running for president , hi
