Ideally, both high schools and colleges can prepare individuals for the ever-changing roles that are likely to be expected of them.

Colleges find it hard to teach students how to cope with the changing economy

And in my position as a professor at three different colleges, the actual problems in educating our young people and older students have deepened, while the number of people hired—not to teach but to hold meetings—has increased significantly.

Some colleges have what they call an "honor code", though if you are smart enough to get into these schools, you are either smart enough to get around any codes or hopefully, too ethical to consider doing so.

"If we can help to direct students to more of these types of campuses and help students to understand them to be realistic and accessible places, have them apply to these schools at greater frequency and ultimately get in and enroll, we are going to raise

"It's not only the selective and elite institutions that provide those opportunities for a small subset of this population," Rubinoff said, adding that a majority of first-generation undergraduates tend toward options such as online programs, two-year col

"They underestimate themselves when selecting a university," said Dave Jarrat, a marketing executive for Inside Track, a for-profit organization that specializes in coaching low-income students and supporting colleges in order to help students thrive.

Across the board, American colleges and universities are not doing a very good job of preparing their students for the workplace or their post-graduation lives.

Big name schools are not necessarily the best places for professors; plus, many professors split teaching time between multiple colleges and/or universities.

Haslam has said colleges would be free to opt in or out of the outsourcing plan, which has not been finalized.

In some cases, colleges and universities might have to change their training programs, adding another layer of difficulty.

Instead of skipping out on higher education altogether, they chose community colleges or state schools with low bars for admittance.

Morgan said those findings—which included data from the system's 13 community colleges, 27 technical colleges and six universities—were part of the decision not to move forward with Governor Bill Haslam's proposal to privatize management of state building

While we should provide "safe spaces" within colleges, we must also make it safe to express opinions and challenge majority views.

And anything that raises GPAs will likely make students—who, at the end of the day, are paying the bill—feel they've gotten a better value for their tuition dollars, which is another big concern for colleges.

And this becomes more of a problem when colleges don't talk about the class advantages and disadvantages of different groups of students.

Because US colleges and universities seldom acknowledge how social class can affect students' educational experiences, many first-generation students lack insight about why they are struggling and do not understand how students like them can improve.

But now most colleges save for many selective campuses, allow all undergraduates, and even graduate students, to get their low grades forgiven.

But since such students are most likely to advance economically if they succeed in higher education, colleges and universities have pushed for decades to recruit more of them.

The commission ignores that for several decades America's colleges and universities have produced graduates who don't know the content and character of liberal education and are thus deprived of its benefits.

The use of this little-known practice has accelerated in recent years, as colleges continue to do their utmost to keep students in school and paying tuition and improve their graduation rates.
