Getting a B.A. and Living With Your Parents, by Bryan Caplan
The most surprising figure in Arum and Roksa's new
Aspiring Adults Adrift
:
Yes, lots of newly-minted college grads live with their parents. Yes, the fraction of college grads who live with their parents has sharply increased. But at least for 22-24 year-olds, the lines for college grads and non-college-grads have almost exactly overlapped without interruption for over a half-century.
Explain that!
P.S. Wednesday I'll be speaking at St. Vincent's College on open borders, so I probably won't be blogging again until the end of the week. If you see me there, or wandering around Pittsburgh, please introduce yourself. :-)
