In recent years, many college grads have struggled to find work, leading some to argue that the financial benefits of a post-secondary degree are actually slim to none. The media has echoed this thought, relying largely on personal stories and anecdotal evidence. But what if a deeper study of the facts leads to a completely different conclusion? Can analysis compete with easy sound bites?
Levine & Associates distilled important, but complex, research findings by Georgetown University’s Center on Education and the Workforce into a visual-driven, step-by-step presentation. Our design approach spotlights their hard-hitting data in a slideshow-like introduction to the full report. Sound bites with substance.


Titled The Undereducated American, the Center’s report demonstrates how the U.S. needs more, not fewer, college graduates in order to prevent increasing wage-inequality. Our design illustrates how college graduation rates are already failing to meet industry needs and the potential crisis the U.S. will face should this trend continue. Based on the success of our approach, the Center repurposed the intro section as an executive summary piece for wider distribution.

None of us at L&A are economists by any stretch of the imagination. Working on this report required us to dig deeply into the content and channel our hazy recollections of Economics 101.
