“Working Class to College” exposes an education class divide that is threatening the American Dream of upward social mobility and sowing resentment among those shut out or staggering under crushing debt.
The book addresses ways to reduce college costs and shares the inspiring accounts of those who have endured all sorts of hardship — homelessness, an incarcerated parent, dangerously low self-esteem — and fought their way to college and commencement.
The author, Robert Carr, a financially-strapped teenager who caught a break as a high school senior more than 50 years ago, has devoted his fortune and mission to Give Something Back, which provides mentoring and need-based scholarships that give blue-collar kids the opportunity to graduate in four years without student debt.
