Tepe, Lindsey – New America, 2014
Less than 100 years ago, only 16.8 percent of all 17-year olds in the U.S. had graduated from high school.

California's Impending College Graduate Crisis and What Needs to Be Done about It. Policy Brief 10-2
Carnoy, Martin – Policy Analysis for California Education, PACE (NJ1), 2010
In 2005-06 almost half of the pupils in California's public schools were Latinos, but Latinos only received about 15 percent of the BA degrees awarded by public and private colleges in the state.
