Education Research Complete. Web. 12 Mar. 2016. Flores provides evidence that although the number of Hispanics in postsecondary education have rose significantly since 2006 they have fallen behind greatly in completing baccalaureate programs. This is considered a national problem, but mostly important in the eight states that have 80% of Hispanic students in college. The main point in this article published is to “heighten the attention to better educate the Latinos. Flores goes on to say that business leaders and state governments should be working closely together to provide greater opportunities in higher education, alongside making sure that these immigrants learn the English language in a timely manner so they can successfully navigate through the American education system. Flores tells us that during his study more than wt ¥ 75% of immigrants also hold either a full-time or partie job rh@ r while attending a postsecondary institution and more than half bet eit se of these immigrants are over the age of 24. “i Hurley, Daniel J., and Thomas L. Hanisch. "Top 10 Higher Education State Policy Issues for 2014." American Association of State Colleges and Universities (2014): n. pag. 15 Jan, 2014. Web. 02 Mar. 2016. Hurley and Harnisch discuss immigration in higher education as the last and final topic in the top ten higher education state policy. The topic discusses ways to find affordable college opportunities for undocumented students. The white house will continue to find ways of extending the in-state tuition and financial aid available for those that have no documentation. There are three main states that are willing to extend eligibility of financial aid to undocumented students. These states are: Texas, California, and New Mexico. These lower the budget for a lower increase in tuition of postsecondary institutions. Sandy, Baum, and Stella M. Flores. "Higher Education and sn Children in Immigrant Families." The Future of Children 21.1 (2011): 174-83. Web. 4a noceosed . Flores and Baum's purpose of this article is to provide information on higher education by comparing numbers from the 1990's to 2010. The authors provide evidence by various research on different countries alongside providing data ranging from generations of families throughout their educational experience. One in eight people in America is an immigrant and has variety of possibilities of education. The research shows that teenagers of today's time that have parents that have not completed any type of education are more than likely not to obtain a college degree. The reason being is because they are usually the ones working at an early age so that they are able to help provide in the midst of times. Zong, Jie, and Jeanne Batalova. "College-Educated Immigrants in the United States." Migrationpolicy.org. Migration Policy Institute, 02 Feb. 2016. Web. 12 Mar. 2016. In the year of 2015 approximately 29.7 of 36% of the foreign population had a college degree or a higher education. Zong says that as America we are more often than not willing to allow foreigners the opportunity to higher education as long as. they are willing to go into the STEM field. This also known as science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. The amount of foreigners give the opportunity to postsecondary education is twice the amount of those that were born in the United States. Zong declares that the foreign percentage was 10% in 1990 has since then increased to 14% in 2014. With a steady growth of about .16% of the period of twenty-four years. This is going to be a great source to use because Zong and Batalova have done a significant amount of research through survey and the US. x Census to come up with these numbers and how immigration % plays a role alongside politics in higher education.

Although this is a short introduction of the state policy it does not provide enough evidence for a valid claim on how politics plays a role in higher education. Hurley, Daniel J., and Thomas L. Hanisch. "Top 10 Higher Education State Policy Issues for 2015." American Association of State Colleges and Universities (2014): n. pag. 17 Jan, 2015, Web. 11 Mar. 2016. Hurley and Harnisch discuss higher education in once again in 2015 top ten education policies for the states. Now sitting at the number five topic, undocumented students, have begun to play a larger role in postsecondary institutions. The authors go on to discuss two states that absolutely prohibit the opportunity for those of the undocumented the chance to attend college. These states are South Carolina and Alabama. In the late months of 2014 the national trend has been to find opportunities for undocumented students to attend college, but with the implementation of new socially classed conservative law makers we may find a downward turn in this trending idea as 2015 continues. The number five topic closes in mentioning the Defered Action of Child Arrival (DACA) can be used for the idea the in-state tuition rate. The authors do a great job of providing numerical evidence for the number of states which currently support provide higher education opportunities for those that are undocumented. Hurley, Danicl J., and Thomas L. Harnisch. "Top 10 Higher Education State Policy Issues for 2016." American Association of State Colleges and Universities (2014): n. pag. 21 Jan. 2016. Web. 09 Mar. 2016.

The main point brings up several states that will need to lower reductions because of low oil prices in their states. The second and last point made in the topic is the Affordable Care Act (ACA) and how it plays a role in higher education. The money that would be used for hospitals and care clinics within the states can now be used for higher education purposes. This does not make a valid claim of the use of higher education on how law makers can significantly
