We must create a new community-based, equity-focused agenda for community colleges, Karen A. Stout writes.

Historically Black colleges and universities could receive grant funding to improve infrastructure on their campuses under a bill introduced in Congress with Democratic and Republican support.

A new initiative aims to bring back 4,000 students who stopped out of private historically Black colleges and universities and guide them to graduation with one-on-one coaching. Public HBCUs are doing similar outreach to students, especially those who left during the pandemic.

A new report highlights how adult learners, low-income students and students of color are concentrated in colleges with fewer resources, and how they are disadvantaged by numerous other disparities.

New research suggests online internships that took place during the pandemic failed to provide effective learning experiences when compared with in-person experiences. How can colleges encourage employers to do better?

Lambda School advertised a job placement rate of 80 percent or higher for its coding boot camps. Three students say the for-profit company knew that was false. They are demanding arbitration.

Some seem to rely on out-of-state high schools -- many of them private -- without many nonwhite students, study finds.

A state audit found that Calbright College, California's online community college, graduated just 12 out of over 900 enrolled students during the 2019-20 academic year. Lawmakers are considering closing the college.
