An interesting question raised at the Ed in '08 conference: The idea of universal pre-school (in other words, affordable for everyone) isn't very controversial, unlike the idea of universal health care.

In other words, should we be requiring that all three and four-year-olds be enrolled in some kind of education program, even if it's "home schooling?" --Dana Goldstein
