In 2007 there were 3.1 million young adults in community colleges but by 2008 that number had swelled by 300,000 students or 11.8% of all the 18 to 24 year olds. Enrollment in the four year schools remained flat during this same period. So what is the employment picture for these 18- to 24- years- olds? It’s bleak.
