Summary
The Condition of Education is an annual compendium report to Congress which describes the current status and recent progress of education in the United States. It focuses on 60 indicators, representing a consensus of professional judgment on the most significant national measures of the condition and progress of education at the time, but tempered, necessarily, by the availability of current and valid information. This volume features indicators which provide information concerning the public debate on how higher education institutions spend their money and how much they charge students in tuition and fees.
