I know a new study has some parents wondering whether high-price college educations are really worth it ,the study shows less than half of college niors know the battle of Yorktown ended the American revolution or, that NATO was formed to resist the spread of communism. In fact, the results from the non-profit Intercollegiate Study Institute shows college kids averaged an "F" on the civics test. So is the traditional college education really, all of us cracked, cracked up to be the days.
Joining us now is Las Vegas radio host Heidi Harris, Heidi ,thanks for joining us on this.
Thank you Steve, good morning.
Well, kids do not em to be learning their civics or their history lessons, ah, why not do you think?

Well, they are too busy with gender studies, you know I just for kicks this morning I looked on the website of Cornell University, and they have cours often on things like Cyber-Feminism, Gender and International Development. They even have a cour there on gossip. And I'm wondering if parents realize when they spend a fortune nding their kids to college, if the are the cours the kids should be taking, if the kids want to take them in addition to regular college cours, it's fine, but they're spending all their time learning tolerance and the women studies programs, or women learn to play boys against girls. And I don't think it benefits them in long term, becau when they leave, they don't have an education.
You don't think tolerance is a legitimate goal?
I think it's a legitimate goal, but I don't think that's why parents nd their kids for. Tolerance should be something taught in the home by the parents before the kids get to c
ollege. That's not what college's there for. It's there to teach you skills and give you an education. Things you can lo, you can u later on your life. But I don't think they are getting that in colleges and this study has proven that.
aao>ffoNow why do you think it's important for all of us to know that the battle of Yorktown ended the American revolution, I,I knew that a long time ago then forgot ,is it really esntial?
Well, I don't know whether it's esntial in day-to-day life, but I think what this study reveals is that there's a lot of missing, uh, information with kids, they don't understand, for example why we have our Constitution, they don't understand why we have the rights we have, and I think that's important for kids to understand, becau they appreciate America. And to me that's the important thing, or to understand world history. Tolerance is fine, but I think parents nd their kids to college to get an advanced education and they're just not getting it any more.
Now one school even has a You-tube cour where kids watch a You-tube video. (Yes) Is this in your view a waste of time or is it really the wave of the future?
welcomWell, you know what, it may be the wave of the future, I, that's one of the colleges in California that you mentioned, and I have to laugh about the You-tube cour. (Alright) Listen, if people want to take the things after hours ,that's their business. But I think parents should know the things before they nd their children to colleges especially the expensive ones, that the are the kind of things their kids are learning, and what does a cour on You-tube really, how to say, benefit you, when it comes to prospects , job prospects. I have a relative who graduated from an Ivy League College recently. A lot of the kids she graduated with were working in coffee shops becau they weren't prepared after their parents spent all this money to go out the real world and earn a living.
OK. Heidi Harris from Las Vegas, thanks for joining us.
Thank you. Steve.jeep cherokee
我知道一个新的研究有一些家长怀疑高价大学教育是值得的真的，研究显示少于半数的大学老人知道了约克镇战役结束了美国革命，或者说，北约成立了抵制共产主义的蔓延。事实上，从非营利的结果显示大学校际研究中心的孩子平均一个“F”对公民的考验。那么，传统的大学教育真的，我们所有的破获，破获了被这些天。
加入我们，现在正是拉斯维加斯哈里斯电台主持人海蒂，海蒂，加入有关情况表示感谢。
谢谢史蒂夫，早上好。
fid那么，孩子们似乎并没有要学习他们的公民或他们的历史教训，啊，为什么不这样做，你觉得呢？英语高分网

那么，他们与性别研究太忙了，你知道，我只是踢今天上午我看了看在康奈尔大学的网站，他们在诸如数码女性主义，性别和国际发展的东西往往课程。他们甚至有一门课程上有八卦。我想知道如果父母意识到，当他们花了一笔把自己的孩子上大学，如果这些课程
的孩子们应该考虑，如果孩子想在普通高校课程除了他们，这很好，但他们'花费所有的时间重新学习容忍，这些妇女研究方案，或妇女学打对女孩男孩。而且我不认为这是他们在长期的好处，因为当他们离开时，他们没有接受教育。
你不认为宽容是一种正当的目标？
我认为这是一个合法的目标，但我不认为这就是为什么父母送他们的孩子的。公差应教授的父母在家里的孩子们可以在大学的东西。这不是什么大学的在那里。它的存在教你的技巧，给你的教育。你可以失去的东西，以后你可以使用你的生活。但我不认为他们所得到的高校，本研究已经证明。maken
现在为什么你认为它是非常重要的，我们都知道，在约克镇战役结束了美国革命，我，我知道，很久以前过后就忘了，是不是真的重要吗？
嗯，我不知道它是否是必要的，日常的日常的生活，但我认为这项研究揭示的是，有一个
aventador什么意思失踪，嗯，有孩子的很多信息，他们不明白，例如，为什么我们我们的宪法，他们不明白为什么我们的权利我们有，而且我认为，重要的是让孩子们理解，因为他们欣赏美。对我来说这是重要的事，或了解世界历史。宽容是很好，但我认为家长送孩子上大学得到一个先进的教育，他们只是没有得到它了。
现在甚至有一所学校，你管课程，在这里孩子们看一个你管的视频。 （是）这是你认为是浪费时间，还是真的是未来的潮流？
嗯，你知道吗，这可能是未来的潮流，我，这是在加州你提到的高校之一，我要笑对你管的过程。 （好）听着，如果有人想利用下班后这些东西，这是他们的业务。但我认为家长应该知道这些事情之前，他们送子女到大学，特别是这些昂贵的，这些东西都是他们的孩子在学习，什么对你管的一门课程真的，怎么说，你受益类，当谈到前景，就业前景。我有个亲戚谁从最近常青藤学院毕业。一个与她的孩子在咖啡店工作，因为他们不准备后，他们的父母花了这些钱去了现实世界和谋生毕业很多。
确定。海蒂哈里斯从拉斯维加斯，参加我们的感谢。
谢谢。史蒂夫。
