When we talk about improving student success, we aren't just talking about getting students through a graduation ceremony--getting them in the row and walking them across the stage. We're talking about making sure that students leave…

The deal is the deal, and Congress has two choices: accept it or reject it.

A nuclear-armed Iran threatens the United States, threatens Israel, threatens the entire world.

One way the Federal Government could help in this process is providing greater incentives to States that maintain tuition to their public institutions at rates significantly below the national average.

$100,000 in debt and very little credit that will actually transfer. For-profit colleges seem more interested in shareholder success than in student success.

I just want to underline what I'm hearing you say about this is putting financial incentives in place so that schools have a reason to invest not just in getting students in through the door, but in having them succeed.

I come to the Senate floor to ask my Republican colleagues a question: Do you have any idea what year it is? Did you fall down and hit your head and think you woke up in the 1950s or the 1890s? Should we call for a doctor? Because I simply…

So, I think--and then the question is, does that change the calculus on whether or not we need to find devices in the law for holding the executives of the biggest financial institutions accountable if they threaten to wreck the economy…

They bailed out the biggest financial institutions.

I would like to see something that actually forces the hand of local and State police agencies to actually engage with the campus police agencies.

The question is, realistically, how do you get there.
