Lucas Kunce on Education

 

 


Relief from student loans; invest in Pre-K, K-12, HBCUs

We need to empower Missourians of all ages and backgrounds with the education and training opportunities they'll need to succeed. That means making college more accessible by providing relief for student loans. It means investing in K-12 and Pre-K education so our teachers have the resources they need. It means putting more money into Pell Grants, the very program Lucas attended college on. And it means investing in Historically Black Colleges and Universities and Minority-Serving Institutions.

Universities rely on full-paying Chinese STEM students

Higher education is a competitive world, fueled by dollars and discoveries. Our legislatures have defunded higher education for years, and the universities need the full-paying tuition, the STEM students, and the research money that America isn't providing them. So they get them from China. Which allows China to exploit our institutions and federal research funding to leapfrog us in key technologies like quantum computing.
