[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Here are some interesting highlights: 1) birth rates have plummeted since the Great Recession and continue to decline. That decade+ trend is going to soon hit college enrollment hard. 2) selective colleges will be fine, but many regional and community colleges, particularly in the northeast, Midwest, and rural areas will find it difficult to survive. 3) to survive, less selective colleges will become even more vocational, thereby increasing the knowledge and future opportunity gap between such schools and selective ones. 4) less selective colleges will use tuition discounts and slots on sports teams to lure more kids. 4) vocationalization will also impact rural vs. urban politics, as students from more selective schools tend to migrate toward larger cities and the coasts. [/quote] This seems like a good result, there are not enough vocational programs in the US currently.[/quote]
