In Educationese, the "returns to education" for blacks are some 12x those for white males, for hispanics some 8x, for females some 3-5 times.

For white males, unless they are already rich or politically connected, their college will never help them, they would be better off just becoming a plumbing contractor now.

Like my plumber told me, if you was a woman and fancy, I'd charge you $150. For you, it's $15. All I did was turn a wrench wunst."

Is that "return on education" stuff documented? Where? It's scandalous and more folks need to find out about it.
