“We have to make sure that college is accessible and affordable. Two years ago, I stood here and called upon our institutions of higher learning to develop plans for degrees that cost no more than $10,000. There were plenty of detractors at that time who insisted it couldn't be done. However, that call inspired educators at colleges and universities across our state to step up to the plate. Today, I'm proud to tell you that thirteen Texas universities have announced plans for a $10,000 degree.” YearsTwoStatesDoneTodayEducationStepsPlansCollegeProudHigherCostDegreesYears AgoInstitutionsInspiredUniversityPlentyTwo YearsTexasPlatesAffordableEducatorStep UpThirteenTwo Years AgoColleges And UniversitiesHigher Learning Author:Rick Perry

“Michael [Douglas] is, I think, a great actor. He's made some very interesting pictures. When he was going to college, I was very proud of him, but when he said, 'Dad, I want to be in a play,' he had a bit part. I went to see it and Michael said, 'Dad, how was I?'

“Every Cuban has a house to live in, no matter how meager. That house is provided by government. Every Cuban who gets sick can go to a doctor or a hospital and get medical attention while 45 million Americans don't have medical insurance. Every Cuban can get education from the kindergarten through college and they don't have to pay.

“The feeling persists that no one can simultaneously be a respectable writer and understand how a refrigerator works, just as no gentleman wears a brown suit in the city. Colleges may be to blame. English majors are encouraged, I know, to hate chemistry and physics, and to be proud because they are not dull and creepy and humorless and war-oriented like the engineers across the quad. And our most impressive critics have commonly been such English majors, and they are squeamish about technology to this very day. So it is natural for them to despise science fiction.” KnowsMayWarFeelingsHateNaturalCitiesFictionTechnologyCollegeProudMajorsBlameScience FictionCriticsPhysicsSuitsGentlemanDullBrownChemistryDespiseEngineersPersistBe ProudImpressiveRespectableCreepyRefrigeratorsEnglish MajorQuads Author:Kurt Vonnegut
