Welcome to episode 96 of the Extra Credit podcast.

This week, Idaho Education News journalist Kevin Richert offers a behind-the-scenes look at his four-part series examining higher education and the state’s signature education goal.

Along the way, Richert explains that Idaho is well short of it’s education attainment goal, despite investing $100 million in hopes of reaching it.

We’re going to take a break for Christmas and traveling, but check back with Idaho Education News on Jan. 5 for another new episode of Extra Credit, where we will preview the 2018 legislative session.
