Marcus, Jon – Education Next, 2019
This century has been a dramatic era for the for-profit higher-education industry.

Jackson, Victoria – Policy Matters Ohio, 2017

State-level momentum in support of vouchers and tax credits that help students go to private schools highlights what has been a largely theoretical issue: private school capacity to support voucher-financed enrollment.
