Fox News
A poll commissioned by the Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression (FIRE) found confidence in higher education has reached a new low.
Taylor Penley is an associate editor with Fox News.
The question is similar to one asked by Gallup last year, which found that Americans who had a "great deal" of approval for institutions of higher education had plummeted from 57% in 2015 to 36% in 2023.
By comparison, FIRE's report indicated only 28% of Americans had "a great deal" or "quite a lot" of confidence in higher education as of May 2024.
