作者利用 1972 年全国纵向调查的数据,估计了就读传统黑人学院和大学 (HBCU) 对黑人学生未来工资的影响。她发现,虽然就读于 HBCU 的学生的大学前特征预测的工资低于就读于混合或历史悠久的白人四年制院校的学生的大学前特征,但对于 1972 年高中毕业的普通黑人学生来说,就读 HBCU 的未来工资增值比就读于传统白人或混合院校的学生高出 38%。这证明 HBCU 在黑人学生在劳动力市场的成功中发挥了重要作用。作者认为,在影响这些机构未来的决策中应该仔细权衡 20 世纪 70 年代。
Using data from the National Longitudinal Survey of the Class of 1972, the author estimates the effect of attending historically black colleges and universities (HBCUs) on future wages of black students. She finds that although the pre-college characteristics of students who attended HBCUs predicted lower wages than did the pre-college characteristics of students who attended mixed or historically white four-year institutions, the value added in future wages from attending HBCUs was 38% higher than that from attending traditionally white or mixed institutions for the average black student graduating from high school in 1972. This evidence that HBCUs played an important role in the labor market success of black students in the 1970s, the author argues, should be carefully weighed in decisions affecting the future of these institutions.
