College for whom?

6/18/2012: Robert Samuelson had a recent column, “‘College for all’ mindset compounds problem“, arguing that the US probably has enough college graduates, or close to it. But are the right students going to college? High math ability students from low income families have less than half the chance of attending and completing college as do high math ability students from high income families. High ability/low income students have a 29% chance of completing college – a bit below the 30% rate for low ability/high income students.
