Ep. 141 - Nov. 28, 2018: Connecting Student Loans to Community College Attainment

As college costs rise, some see cause for alarm in rising levels of student loan debt. However, a new study finds that students who take out loans do better in school. Lesley Turner joins Marty West to discuss that new study, "The Benefits of Borrowing: Evidence on student loan debt and community college attainment," which she co-authored with Benjamin M. Marx. The study is available at: https://www.educationnext.org/benefits-of-borrowing-evidence-student-loan-debt-community-college-attainment/
