In 2003, according to Justice Department figures, 193,000 black college-age men were in prison, while 532,000 black college-age men were attending college. On an average day in 1996, more black male high school dropouts aged 20–35 were in custody than in paid employment; by 1999, over one-fifth of black non-college men in their early 30’s had prison records. | *[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Statistics_of_incarcerated_African-American_males More black males are in prison than are enrolled in colleges and universities.] In 2000 there were 791,600 black men of all ages in prison and 603,032 enrolled in college (a dramatic change since 1980, when there were 143,000 black men of all ages in prison and 463,700 enrolled in college.)
