Dropping Out of College And Paying the Price

The author has found significant data on the economics of college and how it impacts society overall and I personally couldn't agree more with the Stanford professor who has studies the impact of subsidizing college in this country.

It ties into the concept I have researched in the past where for every $1 spent on prevention (early childhood learning/K-12 education) would save multiple times that in terms of unemployment, remediation, social programs, and prison programs in terms of budget and balance sheets.

There are many societal and individual benefits to college as a goal and improving the success rate of those that enter.
