Higher Education, the lower and middle class problem 2 of 2

What the Media Doesn't Tell You host, Larry Velvel, continues his discussion with Colleen O'Brien of the Pell institute, in Washington.  The discussion focuses on the difficulties lower and middle income students have in college with not just financing the education, but dealing with the seeming culture shock of dealing with many who are far more affluent.  O'Brien believes that colleges, especially top tier ones, need to do a great deal more to hel the less privileged students become comfortable in college so they can perform up to their abilities.
 
 The Massachusetts School of Law, located in Andover, Massachusetts, makes high quality, affordable legal education available to less privileged persons who are traditionally excluded from the legal profession. As part of its mission of providing high quality education and information for both law students and the general public, the Massachusetts School of Law also presents information on important current affairs to the general public via television and radio broadcasts, an intellectual journal, conferences, author appearances, blogs and books.
