That's rather misleading. This country is full of smart people who went to high school and college elsewhere, then came here to seek their fortune. It's not like our elders went to college in greater numbers than we in our 30's and 40's did, and certainly not more than kids do nowadays.
To the contrary, there are more people in college than ever before, including many who manifestly have no business being there.

Ol' Slick said --All who want should be able to attend college
