- How does an institution founded 185 years ago by Horace Mann, Daniel Webster & John Quincy Adams to train teachers now produce more teachers than anyone else in Massachusetts while offering free tuition for families earning less than $125,000?
- Why does dedicating 10% of the entire operating budget to student financial aid, something nobody else does, eliminate the barrier of cost for any student that's middle class & below?
- What makes 90 credit bachelor's degrees a race to the bottom that robs students of undergraduate research, study abroad & a fourth year that no employer ever asked to eliminate?
