Implications of this approach for future analyses of inequality and mobility are discussed
Unequal Advantages: The Intergenerational Effects of Parental Educational Mobility
Researchers and policymakers argue that expanding college access is one way to increase opportunities for students who would become the first in their families to enroll in a postsecondary institution.
