Education provides knowledge and skills that help people participate in civic life. Educational attainment also approximates social class, which correlates strongly with civic health. In this report, we look separately at college graduates (those over the age of 24 who say they hold a bachelors degree or more), non-college adults (those over 24 who say they never attended any college), and high school dropouts (those over the age of 20 who say they do not hold a high school diploma). The gaps in civic health are large, consistent for virtually all the indicators, and often widening.
