Whatever depth of the problem that called for creating the dept of education seems confused at best. As matters stood in late 2015, failures seemed to exceed successes. Maybe great strides occurred in between 2015-2024, but that would include Trump in the mix ( maybe despite that as a temporary downturn?).

Seven Ways the Department of Education Has Made Higher Ed Worse — The James G. Martin Center for Academic Renewal

It's amazing - for close to 35 years the Democrats and Republicans have bloviated about eliminating waste and excess spending - President Trump is the only one with enough back bone to do more that talk about it. And people are complaining about him doing what former presidents said needed to get done. Incredible!
