Seppanen, Loretta
Journal of Applied Research in the Community College, v7 n2 p67-76 Spr 2000
Describes employment outcomes based on Unemployment Insurance wage file linking for 38,500 students with substantial liberal arts education who left their community colleges but did not transfer to another institution. Finds that these students benefited economically from their two-year college enrollment and earned wages comparable to vocational graduates in all but the highest wage occupational programs. (NB)
