Defunding Higher Education: What Are the Effects on College Enrollment?

About the Program

As state spending on higher education has declined, public colleges and universities have struggled to respond, raising tuition and cutting costs. PPIC Bren Policy Fellow Hans Johnson will discuss the effects of these trends on the college enrollment rates of recent high school graduates in California.

This study was supported with funding from the Donald Bren Foundation and The James Irvine Foundation.
