States seek greater control over what universities can teach

Season 2026 Episode 226 | 9m 36s

Democrats in Texas will head to Austin with power they haven't had in decades. One of the many questions is whether they will try to reverse changes made at universities in recent years by Republicans. Texas is not alone. More than half of all college students are enrolled in a state limiting what can be taught or how campuses operate. Stephanie Sy reports for our series, Rethinking College.
