College, Careers, and Change
Episode 434
Friday, 6 March, 2026
On this week’s Poll Hub: We unpack how Americans’ confidence in higher education is shifting and what’s behind the change. Long viewed as a reliable path to success, a college degree is now being reassessed as concerns about cost, student debt, and real-world outcomes grow. We explore how attitudes differ across generations, political groups, and socioeconomic lines. We also tackle the latest trends in remote and hybrid work, exploring how the workplace continues to evolve in a post-pandemic world. From flexibility and work-life balance to productivity and collaboration, we examine what Americans are gaining — and what they may be losing — as traditional office norms give way to new models. Plus, we look at what Americans might be able to sacrifice for their preferred setting. Plus, our fun fact of the week explores birthdays, specifically, which birthdays people think are actually worth celebrating. From milestone moments to the debate over whether every year deserves a party, we look at how Americans approach marking another trip around the sun. maristpoll.com/podcast
