Hardback. Condizione: New. Despite the celebrated history of not-for-profit institutions of higher education, today more than 2 million students are enrolled in for-profit colleges such as ITT Technical Institute, the University of Phoenix, and others. Yet little is known about why for-profits have expanded so quickly and even l…ess about how the power and influence of this big-money industry impact individual lives. Lower Ed, the first book to link the rapid expansion of for-profit degrees to America's increasing inequality, reveals the story of an industry that exploits aspirations.

Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. "The best book yet on the complex lives and choices of for-profit students." -The New York Times Book Review As seen on The Daily Show, NPR's Marketplace, and Fresh Air, the 'powerful, chilling tale' (Carol Anderson) of higher education becoming an engine of social inequalityMore than two m…illion students are enrolled in for-profit colleges, from the small family-run operations to the behemoths brandished on billboards, subway ads, and late-night commercials. These schools have been around just as long as their bucolic not-for-profit counterparts, yet shockingly little is known about why they have expanded so rapidly in recent years - during the so-called Wall Street era of for-profit colleges.In Lower Ed Tressie McMillan Cottom - a bold and rising public scholar, herself once a recruiter at two for-profit colleges - expertly parses the fraught dynamics of this big-money industry to show precisely how it is part and parcel of the growing inequality plaguing the country today. McMillan Cottom discloses the shrewd recruitment and marketing strategies that these schools deploy and explains how, despite the well-documented predatory practices of some and the campus closings of others, ending for-profit colleges won't end the vulnerabilities that made them the fastest growing sector of higher education at the turn of the twenty-first century. And she doesn't stop there.With sharp insight and deliberate acumen, McMillan Cottom delivers a comprehensive view of post-secondary for-profit education by illuminating the experiences of the everyday people behind the shareholder earnings, congressional battles, and student debt disasters. The relatable human stories in Lower Ed-from mothers struggling to pay for beauty school to working class guys seeking "good jobs" to accomplished professionals pursuing doctoral degrees - illustrate that the growth of for-profit colleges is inextricably linked to larger questions of race, gender, work, and the promise of opportunity in America.Drawing on more than one hundred interviews with students, employees, executives, and activists, Lower Ed tells the story of the benefits, pitfalls, and real costs of a for-profit education. It is a story about broken social contracts; about education transforming from a public interest to a private gain; and about all Americans and the challenges we face in our divided, unequal society.'The best book yet on thecomplex lives and choices of for-profit students.' - The New YorkTimes Book Review'Cottom does a good job of making the name Lower Ed stick, and she makes a solid case for reviewing theentire system of higher education for openness of opportunity.' - Kirkus Reviews'In Lower Ed McMillan Cottom is at her very best - rigorous,incisive, empathetic, and witty.Her sharp intelligence, throughout, makes thisbook compelling, unforgettable, and deeply necessary.' - Roxane Gay, author of DifficultWomen and Bad Feminist'Lower Ed is brilliant.It is nuanced, carefully argued, and engagingly written. It is a powerful,chilling tale of what happens when profit-driven privatization of a public goodlatches on to systemic inequality and individual aspirations.' - Carol Anderson, author of WhiteRage and professor of African American studies at Emory University'This book is a must-read for anyone interested in the marketforces currently transforming higher education. It is an eye-opening portraitof this burgeoning educational sector and the ways in which its rapid expansionis linked to skyrocketing inequality and growing labor precarity in thetwenty-first-century United States.' - RuthMilkman, past pre Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
