Americans Losing Confidence in College Education

Confidence in the value and cost of a college education in the United States is declining, with only about a third of Americans expressing high confidence in higher education, down from 57% in 2015. Concerns include political agendas, relevant skills teaching, and high costs. While faith in four-year colleges is decreasing, confidence in two-year schools is rising, especially in affordability and worth. Additionally, opinions vary on whether college is necessary for all, with skepticism growing among different demographics like age and political affiliation.
