In The Path to Free College, Michelle Miller-Adams offers a comprehensive analysis of the College Promise movement--its history, impacts, and unintended consequences--and its relationship to access, affordability, and workforce readiness. She also examines historical precursors of the free-college movement and evaluates the possibility of national action. Given the raging national debate about tuition-free college, the moment is right for a book that assesses state and local efforts and offers policy leaders and practitioners guidance going forward.

In The Path to Free College, Michelle Miller-Adams offers a comprehensive analysis of the College Promise movement--its history, impacts, and unintended consequences--and its relationship to access, affordability, and workforce readiness. She also examines historical precursors of the free-college movement and evaluates the possibility of national action. Given the raging national debate about tuition-free college, the moment is right for a book that assesses state and local efforts and offers policy leaders and practitioners guidance going forward. "Michelle Miller-Adams' work informed the Michigan Reconnect and the Futures for Frontliners programs, which provide tuition-free pathways for adults and workers on the front lines of the COVID-19 pandemic. Her book offers research-based recommendations on how free college programs should be designed. The Path to Free College is a must read for leaders committed to increasing college attainment in their states." --Gretchen Whitmer, Governor of Michigan "Over the last half-century America expanded opportunity for higher education without a sustainable plan for financing it. The free college movement is essential and long overdue. Dr. Miller-Adams offers the essential history, evidence, and critical guidance needed to advance it from theory to policy. This book is a must-read for anyone concerned with educational equity." --Sara Goldrick-Rab, president and founder, Hope Center for College, Community, and Justice Michelle Miller-Adams is a senior researcher at the W.E. Upjohn Institute for Employment Research and a professor of political science at Grand Valley State University.
