Union Tribune: Poll: Many Californians believe college is key, but out of reach

Many Californians believe a college education is key but consider it out of reach, a new poll says.

Nearly two-thirds, or 64 percent, of people surveyed by the Public Policy Institute of California, said a person must have a college education to succeed in the workplace. Three-fourths, or 76 percent, said the state’s college system was “very important” to the future of California.
