Economic inequality and higher education

Description:

This book addresses the premise that students from less economically privileged families face considerable barriers to entering and completing college; that without access and persistance, higher education does not necessarily mean success for lower-income individuals and does not spur greater economic opportunity and mobility nor reduce existing gaps between the "haves" and the "have nots."
