And most of the ways that i found they diverged were by Family Income. Students who have a lot of Family Income are going down much more traditional paths, students without a lot of Family Income had many more obstacles in their path. Host can you start by telling us as we get into those different issues a little more about your own path coming out of high school . Guest yeah. So i had a rocky high school period. Right after high school, i grew up in tampa, and after finishing high school

That does not capture all of the college population, but i wanted to understand how the pathways to verged after high school for different students.

You are right the demographics today the age is different i focused on students who were right out of high school so what is that transition out of high school and into the workplace .
