Administration Grades Itself “Incomplete” On Higher Ed

Undersecretary of the Department of Education Ted Mitchell said that while his team has made some significant progress, their efforts “probably won’t be understood for several years.” “It’s easy for me to give grades: incomplete,” he said, speaking at the Arizona State University Global Silicon Valley Summit in San Diego, California. “This is a long game, and I think we’ve gotten a number of things started that will continue to bear fruit.”
