Abstract
Ullrich spent the spring 2014 semester in Kosovo as a Fulbright Scholar. Ullrich notes that a college education has become increasingly important in maintaining competitiveness in the job market. While the number of traditional four-year and community colleges in the nation have expanded and multiplied, so have proprietary, for-profit institutions.
