TUCSON, AZ (Tucson News Now) -
A new report shows half of Arizona high school graduates don't meet requirements to get into the state's public universities.
The rate is even worse for minority students.
It's a challenge that's only going to get worse.
The alarming statistics come from a study just presented to Arizona lawmakers.
The study is called the "Arizona Minority Student Progress Report 2013--Arizona In Transformation."
It's produced by the Arizona Minority Policy Analysis Center (AMEPAC).
It's already known that Arizona spends less on education than almost any other states.
The report notes that, as demographics in the state continue to change, that policy stands to hold back Arizona's economy.
