Description

Low-Income Students and the Perpetuation of Inequality: Higher Education in America by Routledge provides a deep look into the realities of the American college system. By examining who truly benefits from public higher education, this book addresses the systemic challenges faced by students from different socio-economic and ethnic backgrounds. The text uses quantitative data from the U.S. Census and the U.S. Department of Education to build a clear picture of the current landscape. Through a combination of statistical evidence and personal interviews, it explores how social capital, funding, and access to education influence a student's path. Readers will find a detailed discussion on social mobility and the actual value of a college degree in today's economy. It also looks at how education impacts the redistribution of income, making it a necessary resource for those studying sociology, anthropology, or education policy. This book offers a thorough exploration of how higher education affects long-term economic outcomes and social equity.
