This book was released on 200? with total page 476 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thomas Jefferson once stated that the foremost goal of American education must be to nurture the "natural aristocracy of talent and virtue." Although in many ways American higher education has fulfilled Jefferson's vision by achieving a widespread level of excellence, it has not achieved the objective of equity implicit in Jefferson's statement. In Equity and Excellence in American Higher Education, William G. Bowen, Martin A. Kurzweil, and Eugene M. Tobin explore the cause for this divide. Employing historical research, examination of the most recent social science and public policy scholarship, international comparisons, and detailed empirical analysis of rich new data, the authors study the intersection between "excellence" and "equity" objectives. Beginning with a time line tracing efforts to achieve equity and excellence in higher education from the American Revolution to the early Cold War years, this narrative reveals the halting, episodic progress in broadening access across the dividing lines of gender, race, religion, ethnicity, and socioeconomic status. The authors argue that despite our rhetoric of inclusiveness, a significant number of youth from poor families do not share equal access to America's elite colleges and universities. While America has achieved the highest level of educational attainment of any country, it runs the risk of losing this position unless it can markedly improve the precollegiate preparation of students from racial minorities and lower-income families. After identifying the "equity" problem at the national level and studying nineteen selective colleges and universities, the authors propose a set of potential actions to be taken at federal, state, local, and institutional levels. With recommendations ranging from reform of the admissions process, to restructuring of federal financial aid and state support of public universities, to addressing the various precollegiate obstacles that disadvantaged students face at home and in school, the authors urge all selective colleges and universities to continue race-sensitive admissions policies, while urging the most selective (and privileged) institutions to enroll more well-qualified students from families with low socioeconomic status.

Download or read book What Factors Affect College Tuition written by Carol Frances and published by American Association of State Colleges & Universities Press. This book was released on 1990 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report analyzes both the trends in college tuition paid by students, and the trends in higher education costs paid by institutions, and offers insights into the relationships between them. Data are presented to show that the annual rate of increase in college tuition has dropped significantly since the early 1980s. A four-factor model is presented to explain upward and downward pressures in total college tuition revenues; the model includes changes in enrollment, costs, share of total costs covered by student tuition, and resources invested. The report examines the legitimacy of comparing trends in college tuition with the Consumer Price Index and the Higher Education Price Index. The report then discusses: (1) the costs of particular goods and services purchased by colleges and universities; (2) trends in faculty and staff salaries and efforts to hold down compensation costs; (3) state higher education appropriations; (4) shortfalls in federal student aid funding; and (5) shortfalls in funding for research. The final two chapters fit tuition into the larger picture of college and university finance and analyze the outlook for college costs and college tuition in the 1990s. Forty-six charts illustrate the findings and are documented in the appendix by tables of data. (JDD)

Book excerpt: College Tuition erases the notion that colleges are automatically trusted places of reverence. When it comes to finances, colleges' lust for money and self-interest knows no bounds. The higher education system is broken and its future depends on developing a more productive mode of operation. This book is well documented with striking, clear, easy to understand data and illustrations. The writers unveil the issues most directly related to the unnecessary rise in costs, and will help college-bound students identify cost effective schools and use techniques to secure the most beneficial financial aid deals. It will better prepare the general public and spur policymakers, board members, presidents, donors and employees at every college and university to speak more forcefully on the subject of institutional finances. College costs continue to rise at a level twice the CPI while today's high unemployment is making jobs for graduates hard to come by. Add to these problems changing in financial aid and declining family income and you have the perfect storm for controversy. Students and parents across the country are seeking straightforward answers about why college costs have spiralled out of control and what they can do on a practical level to minimise their expenses.

Book excerpt: Based on available data, college tuition and fees have been rising more rapidly than household income over the past 2 decades. The divergence is particularly pronounced for low-income households and becomes less pronounced as household income increases. In analyzing price increases, researchers have considered whether a relationship exists between federal aid and price increases. There are several ways Congress could consider addressing the issue, such as imposing price controls, offering incentives for controlling prices or costs, ensuring the public is better educated about college cost and price issues, reducing regulatory burden, or changing federal financial aid programs. It is not clear which of these strategies would be most effective, or if Congress has appropriate tools at its disposal to address the issues of costs and prices.
