Baltimore City Community College at the Crossroads

Abell Foundation
March 2002

The ever-useful Abell Foundation has just issued this blunt, alarming report on the education disaster at the intersection of Baltimore's moribund school system and the troubled community college that receives a large fraction of that system's graduates. Anybody concerned about the reform of urban education at either the K-12 level or the postsecondary level and, especially, at the difficulties where they're supposed to mesh, will do well to read this bleak, hard-hitting account. You can find both a short version and a long version on the Foundation's website at www.abell.org. (Both are in PDF format.)
