How Many Latinos ?

The article by Daniel Cubias ponders the gains Latinos should be making in higher education. While I can't vouch for the numbers Cubias provides the experiences he relates resonate with me. Even in states with high numbers of Latino populations, the numbers of Latinos beyond the first two years of college seem to increase very slightly. This is troubling on many levels--social justice, economy of the states where they live, and issues of perpetually staying on the bottom rungs of the social/cultural/economic ladder.
