I wish the authors had broken down the statistics better, but on the whole it was refreshing to see a discussion around college not focused on the same few elite private universities. The way we as a culture tell stories about college is so disproportionately affected by those universities that it's hard to really understand things like "student debt" or "rape on campus" -- I forget where I read it, but I believe that the average American college student is involved in a 2-year community college. I think all discussions of "college" need to specify what "college" means: private elite university, private university, public university, community college. Also, interesting to see how as soon as there is a gender disparity people reach for the "pipeline problem" as the most likely explainer.
