Viac o knihe

The book delves into social mobility and class integration in Colombian higher education through a forgivable loan program for 40,000 high-achieving students from disadvantaged backgrounds. It introduces concepts like 'gate opening' and 'diversified networks' to challenge traditional inequalities.

The significance of their prestigious degrees varies in different labor markets, particularly affecting first-generation students facing cultural and social capital barriers.
