Now you can check the Pell Share at your alma mater, employer, current school, or pretty much any 4-year college that accepts federal financial aid. https://edreformnow.org/uncategorized/the-least-accessible-colleges-in-america/">https://edreformnow.org/uncategor... https://twitter.com/James_S_Murphy/status/1316548235704623104">https://twitter.com/James_S_M...
I did some more digging into the 2018 Pell Shares--like this list of the 10 worst public universities, where I learned that Virginia is the home of 4 of the worst public universities in the nation when it comes to access.
But really I& #39;m hoping people will use the searchable and sortable table to see how the schools they& #39;re interested in are doing and whether they are making progress in enrolling low-income students. And call them out on Twitter for it.
I& #39;m really hoping that people will share this thread and the link to the Pell list, so that we can get more advocates for change. Be like @chicagobulls legend @HARPER04_5, who called out Miami U for being the worst public in America on Pell. https://twitter.com/HARPER04_5/status/1321615527572393984?s=20">https://twitter.com/HARPER04_...
Wouldn& #39;t it be cool if @lenadunham called out her alma mater for being one of the 5 worst school in the US when it comes to enrolling low-income students? Or @TVietor08 @BlomquistRich @johngreen @PhizLair @AlisonBechdel @cp3 @MHarrisPerry @rebeccamakkai?
I& #39;ll call out my alma mater @FordhamNYC which is in the heart of the Bronx and is a *Catholic* university and yet allowed its Pell share to decline from 2011 to 2018. This is not acceptable.
