I am investigating the "value" of college in order to advise my niece on post-secondary options. Thank you very much for posting this entire article for public use. I found it through a search on GALILEO, the Georgia Library Learning Online.

I will use the information and policy ideas here to support After School Matters, a Chicago not-for-profit providing high quality after school educational opportunities to at-risk teens throughout the city's neighborhoods. These opportunities include exposure and training in visual and performing arts, sciences, and employment readiness training.

I provide administrative support to research faculty within a research center. I am frequently asked to pull in-text references from proposal narratives or drafts of research results prior to being published and then prepare a reference list. As I scour the internet for accurate details to place in citations, it's critical to be able to access materials. I also gather research materials for research faculty and graduate assistants, depending upon topics they prepare to investigate. I genuinely value the ease with which I can look at materials on your site.

Thank you for access to this article. Our College Dreams organization has a contract with our Local Workforce Investment Board to provide career related learning services for youth, and this will be exceptionally helpful information for us to develop an evidence-based template for our work. It is possible that one of our Dreamers may attend Harvard at some point in the future. We have lots of very bright, high achieving students who are from low income families, Hispanic, and/or at risk of academic achievement gaps. We are tracking access to elite colleges through Questbridge.

I teach developmental reading and writing at City College of San Francisco, and my students use Pathways to Prosperity to write an essay arguing in favor or against including vocational education in the high school curriculum. Open access to this document keeps costs down for students for whom this topic is very relevant.
