I originally went to this American Academy of Arts and Sciences report due to a sensational headline "11 States spend more on Corrections than Higher Education."
After reading a bit though, I am more concerned about this: "Between 2008 and 2013, states cut appropriation support per fte student in the median public research university by more than 26 percent (overall, support per fte student at the median public institution was cut by more than 20 percent)." Still, that is only one alarming quote among many possibilities.
The quality of public higher education may not survive the 21st century, or even my younger's application process.
