The low Hispanic college rate reflects the relatively low education levels of Hispanic immigrants, whose college rates are far below native-born Hispanics. http://www.census.gov Noemi Aguilar National Center for Family Literacy 325 West Main Street, Suite 300 Louisville, KY 40202-4237 Phone: 502/584-1133 ext 168 Fax: 502/584-0172 E-mail: naguilar@famlit.org
