The role of career and  technical education in Iowa community colleges.

Authors: Laanan, F.S., & Compton, J.

ABSTRACT: A new, groundbreaking report describes how Historically Black Colleges and Universities, Hispanic-Serving Institutions, and Tribal Colleges and Universities are in an unrivaled position to remedy the technological disenfranchisement of the nation's emerging majority populations—the nation's future workforce—but remain limited due to lack of financial resources. While some minority-serving institutions (MSIs) have achieved impressive results in the application of technology, far too many have urgent needs that cannot be addressed without significant new investments.
