I rather expected a full article, but Inside Higher Ed today has a “quick take” piece on the debate I participated in on Friday evening. (Scroll down past several others and you’ll find it.)

Why the use of snicker quotes around the word “marginal” when Rich Vedder and I argue that it does little or no good to lure academically weak students into college? Nearly all of the people who might be induced to enroll in college to increase our college enrollment and graduation rates would have to be drawn from the ranks of those who have poor academic records — that is, students who are at the margin of college qualification.

I’ll write a Pope Center piece on the debate this week.
