Synopsis
The open-admissions experiment at the City University of New York was the most ambitious effort ever made to promote equality of opportunity in American higher education. Initiated in 1970, during the heyday of the "great society," it defined college as a right for all who had completed high school, and it especially aimed to create educational opportunities for disadvantaged minority students. This book evaluates that controversial experiment. Although critics predicted that the open-admissions policy would sweep away academic standards and result in watered-down degrees of little value, David Lavin and David Hyllegard present data to show that students who graduated were able not only to earn postgraduate degrees at non-CUNY institutions but also to obtain good jobs--far better than the jobs they could have expected without the opportunity open admissions gave them. Indeed, in one year in the 1980s, say the authors, open-admissions students earned $67 million more than they would have if they had not gone to college. Notwithstanding the successes of open admissions, attacks on it have continued, and, as the book shows, minority access to college has been cut back significantly at CUNY and elsewhere. This book provides ammunition for those who want to challenge emerging policies that narrow educational opportunities for minority students and poor people.

- u***i (57)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufThe book was new and a great value. It was well packaged by shipper. It was shipped as promised and arrived in less than a week after I placed the order. I have ordered several books from this seller over the past few years and have always received excellent service. The books quality and appearance matched the sellers description.
- 2***b (589)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzter MonatBestätigter KaufGreat seller! Very impressive packaging, prompt shipping, and the book arrived safely in pristine new condition, exactly as described. A tad pricey, but the care in the packaging was worth the care and cost. Thank you!
- p***p (71)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufOne of the best e-Bay buying experiences I've ever had. The item was exactly as described, and exactly what I wanted. (The price was so good, I was momentarily concerned that perhaps I was getting a smaller version of the deck I ordered, but no, it was exactly what I wanted. And the item was well-packed! We've had lots of rain in our area lately, and some other shipments from places like A***** had gotten damaged when they were left on my porch. Not this one!
