Stop Starving Our Urban Public Universities Underfunding colleges that serve large numbers of low-income and minority students risks turning them into dropout factories, Stephen Jordan writes. By   Conflicting pressures have put urban public institutions of higher education that serve large numbers of low-income and students of color in a straitjacket. Major cities in the U.S. generally have higher concentrations of poverty, communities of color and immigrants than the suburbs do. The problems facing higher education in cities dovetail with other urban problems such as the quality of urban K-12 schools and the socioeconomic status of their students. Consequently, state-supported urban institutions are being asked and have moral and long-term economic imperatives to provide more academic and student support services to students coming through pre-collegiate educational pipelines that have not prepared them for college than is true for many other kinds of colleges.
