NEW: Black & low-inc students are disprop. in online 4yr programs, these progs. relate to worse grad & loan repayment outcomes, & the patterns exist at both for-profits AND nonprofits.

A supplemental wealth-based Pell Grant is an exciting proposal to make higher education more affordable, accessible, and equitable.

Financial aid models primarily rely upon family income to determine a student's need -- an approach that overlooks differences in assets.

Our new report with @HERE_Lab proposes a new Wealth-Based #PellGrant that could help close racial equity gaps in degree attainment & student loan borrowing rates and give more students a debt-free option. https://t.co/lWUhbS3Oyv

[Christian Michael Smith @SmithChristianM]

In a new report, we show how a Wealth-Based Pell Grant could address racial wealth gaps and reduce student debt burdens. This intervention could have a particularly profound impact on students who face the double disadvantage of low income AND low wealth.

@_emilyrjohnson Thrilled for you!

I'm very taken by this new Samuel Lucas paper where he applies EMI to health insurance. Finds EMI patterns re: *whether* one has insurance & *what kind*. Innovative, theoretically rich, & useful for discerning & confronting inequality. Work to look up to.
