YouTube Description
as posted by the channelJerry Falwell Jr. has been asked by Donald Trump to lead a task force on higher education. Ana Kasparian and John Iadarola, the hosts of The Young Turks, tell you why this is a terrible idea. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.
“Jerry L. Falwell Jr., president of Liberty University, has been asked by President Trump to head up a new task force that will identify changes that should be made to the U.S. Department of Education’s policies and procedures, Mr. Falwell told The Chronicle on Tuesday.
The exact scope, size, and mission of the task force has yet to be formally announced.

“The goal is to pare it back and give colleges and their accrediting agencies more leeway in governing their affairs,” said Mr. Falwell, who said he had been discussing possible issues with several other college leaders and at least one head of an accrediting agency for the past two months. “I’ve got notebooks full of issues,” he said.”
