Shifting Balance of Lower/Middle/Upper Classes in Admissions

More and more colleges are trying to address the middle class “doughnut issue.” Colby recently introduced its Fair Shot program, and to your point, it was funded by alums. @SuperSenior19, in Malcolm Gladwell’s Revisionist History season one podcasts, there are 3 in the middle on education. All of them speak to this in some way and all are fascinating. While “Food Fight” speaks most directly to this, the one before (Carlos doesn’t remember) and the one after are also thought-provoking. None of these situations are as simple as they appear!
