DAY WEEKEND. TRAVELERS, GAS PRICES, THEY ARE DROPPING. SO LET'S GET IT UPDATE ON ALL OF THESE STORIES. JANE KING IS JOINING US LIVE FROM THE NASDAQ IN NEW YORK WITH MORE ON THIS. AND WE'VE BEEN WATCHING THESE FLIGHT ATTENDANTS AND OF COURSE, THE GAS PRICES TELL ME MORE ABOUT POPE. WELL, THAT'S RIGHT. RUN AND LOT OF PEOPLE HITTING THE ROAD FOR THE LONG WEEKEND. SO I PRICES CERTAINLY A FOCUS. >> THE NATIONAL AVERAGE FOR REGULAR GAS IS 3.36. A GALLON THAT IS DOWN ABOUT $0.14 FROM LAST MONTH DOWN. $0.46 FROM A YEAR AGO. THAT'S GOING TO TRIPLE A WHICH IS THE CURRENT AVERAGE IN HOUSTON IS TO 94 LAST LABOR DAY. IT WAS 3.38, NOW BARRING ANY UNEXPECTED ROAD BOMBS, GEOPOLITICAL EVENTS, EXPERTS SAY PRICES SHOULD KEEP FALLING FOR THE REST OF THE YEAR. WELL, TODAY CAN TO COLLEGE STUDENTS PERSPECTIVES ON THE UPCOMING SCHOOL YEAR. FORBES ADVISOR FOUND THAT MANY CONCERNS OF COLLEGE STUDENTS ARE SHOULDERING AND AMONG THOSE SAYING WHAT KIND OF CLASSES THEY PREFER NOW, 78% OF STUDENTS CHOOSE IN-PERSON OR HYBRID CLASSES OVER ONLINE. ONLY AND MORE THAN HALF OF THE STUDENT SURVEY BY FORBES ADVISOR SAY THEY PLANNED TO USE SCHOLARSHIPS, GRANTS OR FINANCIAL AID TO PAY FOR COLLEGE. MEANWHILE, THE FEDERAL RESERVE ON THE LEAST REGRETTED COLLEGE MAJOR IS ENGINEERING THE ONE WITH THE MOST REGRETS? IT'S SOCIAL AND BEHAVIORAL SCIENCES AND UNITED AIRLINES FLIGHT ATTENDANTS VOTED OVERWHELMINGLY TO AUTHORIZE A STRIKE IF THEIR CONTRACT NEGOTIATIONS FALL. BUT THE UNION WITH THE AIRLINE, A 99% OF THE ASSOCIATION OF FLIGHT ATTENDANTS TOOK PART IN THIS VOTING. DID THEY VOTE IN FAVOR OF IT? >> SOME PICKETED AFTER THE VOTE TOOK PLACE TO GET WORD OUT ABOUT THEIR DEMANDS SHRUNK. AND SPEAKING OF WHICH WE ACTUALLY AS VIDEO EARLY, WE SHOW SOME PEOPLE PICKETING IN AUSTIN HERE IN TEXAS AND WHERE WE HAVE A LIVE REPORTER IN A BUSH AIRPORT RIGHT NOW WATCHING FOR THAT BECAUSE WE KNOW THIS IS GOING TO, OF COURSE, CONTINUE FOR SOME TIME AND LABOR DAY WEEKEND. THEY SAID IT'S IMPACT THE FLIGHTS, THOUGH. IS THAT WHAT YOU'RE HEARING AS WELL? WELL, THAT'S RIGHT. SO THIS IS JUST IT'S LIKE A A VOTE TO AUTHORIZE A STRIKE IF THE TALKS FAIL. SO IT WON'T HAVE ANY IMPACT ON ANY TRAVEL THIS WEEKEND. BUT IT IS SOMETHING TO KEEP TO WATCH BECAUSE IT MIGHT BE JUST IN TIME FOR THE HOLIDAYS. SO OTHER WORDS, THE PICKETING IS LIKE REMINDING THEM. HELLO, WE'RE HERE. WE NEED TO GET THIS TAKEN AND I THINK IN INFORMING THE PUBLIC ABOUT WE DO WHAT THEY WANT AND THAT THERE'S POTENTIAL PROBLEM LOOMING. SO THAT'S WHY THEY'RE ALL THINKING. ALL RIGHT, JANE KING, ALWAYS UPFRONT, GOT ALL OF IT FOR US. I LOVE IT. AND THANK YOU SO MUCH. FOR MOST PEOPLE YOU SPOKE LISTEN. ENJOY YOUR THREE-DAY WEEKEND. WE'RE GOING TO SHOW MONDAY. SOME
