We believe the relevancy of tax status will become even more arbitrary and irrelevant in the regulation of higher education institutions.

Thank you for testifying before the Subcommittee on Higher Education and Workforce Training at the hearing entitled, 'Keeping College Within Reach: Improving Access and Affordability through Innovative Partnerships.'

Good afternoon, and thank you for joining us today for our hearing on higher education opportunities for veterans and servicemembers.

I appreciate your participation.

And as other people have said, we all have the same commitment--all of us here, whatever our party is, and most of the people in this country--to honor our veterans and our military people.

Thank you for testifying before the Subcommittee on Higher Education and Workforce Training at the hearing entitled, 'Keeping College Within Reach: Supporting Higher Education Opportunities for America's Servicemembers and Veterans.'

Anybody who comes in this room who is in the education business and uses the word training will get my lecture.

We hold our public schools, the elementary and secondary teachers, to very high standards.

There are a lot of people teaching at the university level who aren't very good teachers and probably ought not to be in a classroom.

As you have heard from Representative Foxx, leading universities and faculty are creating MOOCs many students never even enter a classroom.

I look forward to beginning that conversation in today's hearing.
