Monthly Labor Review, v109 n10 p28-30 Oct 1986

The proportion of graduates of the high school class of 1985 who enrolled in college set a record. Graduates who did not attend college were typically in the labor force, and their unemployment rate was 11 percentage points lower than the 36 percent rate recorded for those who dropped out of high school and entered the labor force.
