Degrees of Inequality: How the Politics of Higher Education Sabotaged the American Dream
Suzanne Mettler
The American higher education system is in a state of decline. Once a doorway to the American Dream, college has become a tool for reinforcing inequality. This book tackles head-on what has gone so horribly wrong and gives insight into the politics underlying the nation's stagnating graduation rates.
