What percentage of the American population attends college?


Asked by Joel
I recall reading an article that was written by a father who expressed the pride he had in regard to his son and his profession although his son was a truck driver. The article went on to state that most Americans do not attend college, and actually provided statistics that substantiated his claim. I wondered if anyone knew if this was in fact a true statement, and if so what those statistics were. The article I'm referring to is one that I have read several years ago, so I don't recall the information that was provided.

30% have college degrees, and more of course have "some college." Most Americans do not attend college.
