A successful government of, by, and for the people is dependent on its people being educated. There is no doubt that ensuring that every American receives a top notch education is crucial to the future of this country. That is why I am so proud to represent a state with so many high-quality, post-secondary education options. From our community colleges to our regent universities to our vocational schools to our private colleges, Kansas offers everyone the opportunity to improve their life with learning. As the scholar John Dewey once said, "Education is not preparation for life; education is life itself." |
