This week, President Obama is visiting South Dakota, the 50th state he's visited during his time in office. To mark the occasion, Chief Official White House Photographer Pete Souza curated a collection of photos of the President in every state he's visited -- some lighthearted, some sad, some poignant.

In 2012, Tara was a recent graduate when she started working as a special education teacher in Georgia. This past fall, she sat down to write a letter to President Obama about the challenges she initially faced, and the rewarding profession she has grown into after three years in the classroom.

DJ Patil on why more Americans should have access to community college


Question of the Week

http://click.mail.whitehouse.gov/?qs=0a9a8108b11068f1e1ddb35787e595e878c7a5103119cf9a7e6e5668b33a8f21a942bf7fd293b997
Why should more Americans have access to community college?

Earlier this year, the President laid out a proposal to make community college free for responsible students for two years.

In our growing global economy, Americans need to have more knowledge and more skills to compete -- by 2020, an estimated 35 percent of job openings will require at least a bachelor's degree, and 30 percent will require some college or an associate's degree. Students should be able to get the knowledge and the skills they need without taking on decades' worth of student debt.

Do you agree with the President? If so, tell us why you think more Americans should have access to community college.
