The recession continues to hit the less educated far worse than college graduates. The unemployment rate for college graduates fell to 4.7 percent last month, from 4.9 percent. The rate for people who have attended college but do not have a bachelor's degree held steady at 8.3 percent. For high school graduates who never attended college, the rate rose to 10.9 percent, from 10.6 percent. For high school dropouts, the rate rose to 15 percent, from 14.7 percent.
