I Am Beginning to Think That the Backlash Against the Skills-Gap Story of Wage Inequality Has Gone Too Far...: Focus - Washington Center for Equitable Growth:
The key things to avoid are:
Keeping people who won’t successfully complete college from enrolling and having an experience that they look back at as not worthwhile…
Keeping people who won’t successfully complete college from taking on enormous student loan debt in the process…
Keeping people who could successfully complete college from signing up for a very low-quality college–and we are looking at you, Washington Post, or Stanley Kaplan University Daily–as having played a large role in blocking action to minimize this problem…
And the key things to promote is:
Persuading people who will successfully complete a reasonable-quality college that their loan debt will be a very small burden on them, and that college is really a very good investment.
Figuring out better and cheaper ways to teach and verify what people learn in college.
Figuring out how to boost the human capital of people who will not successfully complete a reasonable-quality college.
