Summary
I'm investigating how political beliefs, such as identifying as liberal or conservative, shape opinions on higher education. While some view college as essential for career and intellectual growth, others question its quality or perceive ideological bias in universities. Through surveys and data analysis, my research explores how political ideology influences these attitudes and why it matters. Understanding these connections can inform discussions on the role of higher education in society.
