Obama announced the “American Graduation Initiative” to strengthen community colleges by investing $12 billion over the next 10 years to help 2-year institutions reach, teach and train more people for “the jobs of the future” when the economy recovers and jobs are created. The program would be funded by ending wasteful subsidies to banks and private providers of student loans. Currently, about 6 million attend community college and Obama is setting a goal of an additional 5 million college grads by 2020.
