America HATES College Students

HeadGum
About this episode

(In addition to your weekly Factually! episode, this week we're bringing you a monologue from Adam. This short, researched monologue originally aired on the Factually! YouTube page, but we to start sharing audio versions of these monologues with our podcast audience as well. Please enjoy, and stay tuned for your regularly scheduled episode of Factually!)

Why does it feel like America hates college students? We saddle them with crushing debt, label them as "snowflakes," and even deploy SWAT teams when they dare to use the very educations they’ve received. While recent news has highlighted this with student protests over the war in Gaza, the truth is this is part of a much larger, decades-long, covert war against higher education.
