Our reports help to enrich conversations about important issues in education and
society through a slate of commonly accepted facts and findings.
The Truth Lies in the Data
We can’t have important discussions about education without looking at the data. Through institutions such as the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) and the World Bank, we have an unprecedented view at what’s really happening in our schools (and what’s not).
Our mission is to start discussions around the facts, not opinions. Some of our breakdowns are simple, such as the Number of College Graduates per Year and how those numbers breakdown. Some of our breakdowns are more complex, such as calculating the true Cost of College and how that’s changed across generations. No matter what the debate is, it’s important to start it from a place of undisputed truth.
