given the rising flow of aid money, financial barriers are not the main issue. A lot of it has to do with being academically prepared, psychologically prepared and culturally prepared for college. DAVID BROOKS

We can't be honest on this subject. These kids are on the left side of the bell curve. Unless we are going to dumb down college, not everyone is going to go. If everyone graduates, then the degrees become worthless.

You can do very well in this country without a college degree if you have the character to work. You just don't go the professional/corporate route.
