According to the National Assessment of Adult Literacy, the percentage of college graduates’ ability in literacy had declined from 40% to 31% in the past decade. About 20% of college seniors did not have the ability to estimate whether their car had enough fuel to get to a gas station.
But too many kids and parents can show only fancy diplomas to friends and relatives for all the cost invested in diploma pursuit.
There is a disconnect somewhere. More kids going to college are getting into debt. More of their parents are going broke financing their education. Results are poor. And the jobs are few. ( See the Earl J Weinreb NewsHole® comments.)
