The Postsecondary Achievement of Participants in Dual Enrollment: "An Analysis of Student Outcomes in Two States". (2007, background): “There is substantial evidence that, despite students’ desire to obtain college degrees (National Center for Education Statistics [NCES], 2004) and the economic benefits of doing so (Grubb, 2002; NCES, 2003), many young people will not earn postsecondary credentials.”
Labor Market Returns to Sub-Baccalaureate Credentials (2015, background): “These articles are not able to distinguish certificates by length or field of study (Bailey et al., 2004; Grubb, 1997, 2002a, 2002b; Kerckhoff & Bell, 1998).”
Community College Student Success: What Institutional Characteristics Make a Difference?. (2005, background): “Research by economists on community college outcomes has focused on the economic payoff of enrolling in a two-year program and receiving a degree (Grubb, 2002; Kane & Rouse, 1995; 1999) or on the effectiveness of transferring to a four-year institution (Ehrenberg & Smith, 2004; Leigh & Gill, 2003;…”

Is Student Success Labeled Institutional Failure? Student Goals and Graduation Rates in the Accountability Debate at Community Colleges. CCRC Working Paper No. 1. (2005, background): “Thus community colleges are expected to accommodate a wide variety of students, and many of them face financial, academic, and personal challenges that may be beyond the control of the colleges and that can thwart students’ retention and successful completion of programs (Adelman, 2005b; Grubb, 200”
Social Stratification in Higher Education (2009, background): “At least among community college students, however, credit accumulation beyond the first year leads to increases in earnings even for those who do not complete a degree (Grubb, 2002; Marcotte, Bailey, Borkoski, & Kienzl, 2005).”
