Two New Studies Show Alarming Segregation in New Jersey Schools Which May Run Afoul of State Constitution

The Civil Rights Project at UCLA (CRP) and the Institute on Education Law and Policy at Rutgers University-Newark (IELP) today jointly released two reports finding that the racial and socioeconomic divide in New Jersey public education continues to grow unabated.

Both studies are products of close collaboration between the two research centers and are interrelated, but each develops a distinctive set of issues.
