Malia's decision to take a gap year isn't just good for her - it's good for the country - 0 views

  • There is growing research showing that taking a bridge year boosts motivation, confidence and achievement and, for many, a cost savings as it decreases the timeline to graduation. 
  • When we enable students to step out of the classroom and focus on what really matters, they discover who they are and who they hope to become. And they do that before someone (whether a parent, benefactor or government program) makes the single largest investment of a young person’s life: a college education.
  • It's time to rebrand the “gap year” as what it has the potential to be -- a “bridge year” or “launch pad” -- and to make it a more encouraged, accepted and accessible option for kids from all backgrounds.
