“The United States has a long tradition of recognizing the significant social and economic benefits of providing high-quality education for as many of its citizens as possible. Community colleges have made a significant contribution to expanding educational opportunities. Attendance at one of these institutions is associated with higher wages, even if a degree is not completed. Evidence suggests that each year of credit at a community college is worth almost as much, in terms of increased earnings potential, as a year at a four-year college.”
