In the United States we are becoming more and more concerned with education, and more specifically, keeping up with the standard of education to get a good job. From the last generation to this generation, the standard of education has changed. A high school graduation is no longer enough, and bachelor\u2019s degrees are becoming a necessity for children of the millennial generation. At the same time, we\u2019ve become extremely concerned with money since the 2008 financial crisis. Though we\u2019re on the road to financial recovery, not everyone is feeling the benefits. The issue of poverty has always been on our radar, but the wealth gap has grown wider between the richest of the rich and the average American.<\/p>\n<p>This podcast ties in the problem of poverty with the growing demand for higher education. In addition, it took a fresh new look at the issue by looking at hard data and speaking to professional, which I thought was absolutely brilliant. It made numbers seem interesting and relevant to our lives. We heard the voices of mothers and teachers over the podcast which made the people being affected by the issues real to the listener.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Does \u201cEarly Education\u201d Come Way Too Late?
