Abstract

Rethinking college for all• The cost of going to college has tripled in the past 30 years. It is much higher in the United States than in other developed nations.• The evidence is that there is no increased employer demand for college-educated workers.• Employer complaints of skills shortages don’t hold water. If there were real shortages, wages would rise. They haven’t.
