Educational attainment in rural America reached a historic
height in 2000, with nearly one in six rural adults holding a 【M1】______
4-year college degree, and more than three in four complete 【M2】______
high school. As the demand of workers with higher educational 【M3】______
qualifications rises, many rural policymakers
have come to view local educational levels as a critical
determinant of job and income growth in their communities.
But policymakers are facing with two key questions. 【M4】______
First, does a better educated population lead to greater
economic growth? According to a recent study, rural counties
with higher educational levels saw rapid earnings and 【M5】______
income growth over the past two decades than counties with
lower educational levels. However, economic returns to
education for rural areas continue to lag that for urban areas. 【M6】______
Second, are there Ways to improve local educational attainment,
particularly through improvements in elementary and high
schools, It can enhance the economic well-being of rural 【M7】______
residents and communities? In fact, preliminary research
demonstrates a connection between better schools and positive
outcomes in terms of earnings and Income growth for rural
workers and rural communities.

outmigration. The loss of potential workers from rural areas, as
young adults leave college and work opportunities in urban 【M9】______
areas, has concerned rural observers for many decades. This
rural "brain drain" not only deprives rural employers of an
education workforce, but also depletes local resources because 【M10】______

"All I hear in higher education is, 'Brand, brand, brand,'" said Tim Westerbeck, who specializes in branding and is managing director of Lippmann Hearne, a marketing firm based in Chicago that works with universities and other nonprofit organizations. "There has been a sea change over the last 10 years. Marketing used to be almost a dirty word in higher education. "
Not all efforts at name changes are successful, of course. In 1997, the New School for Social Research became New School University to reflect its growth into a collection of eight colleges, offering a list of majors that includes psychology, music, urban studies and management. But New Yorkers continued to call it the New School.
Now, after spending an undisclosed sum on an online survey and a marketing consultant's creation of "naming structures" , "brand architecture" and "identity systems", the university has come up with a new name., the New School. Beginning Monday, it will adopt new logos (标识), banners, business cards and even new names for the individual colleges, all to include the words "the New School" .
Changes in names generally reveal significant shifts in how a college wants to be perceived. In altering its name from Cal State, Hayward, to Cal State, East Bay, the university hoped to project its expanding role in two mostly suburban counties east of San Francisco.
The University of Southern Colorado, a state institution, became Colorado State University at Pueblo two years ago, hoping to highlight many internal changes, including offering more graduate programs and setting higher admissions standards.
Beaver College turned itself into Arcadia University in 2001 for several reasons, to break the connection with its past as a women's college, to promote its growth into a full-fledged university and, officials acknowledged, to eliminate some jokes about the college's old name on late-night television and "morning zoo" radio shows.
Many college officials said changing a name and image could produce substantial results. At Arcadia, in addition to the rise in applications, the average student's test score has increased by 60 points, Juli Roebeck, an Arcadia spokeswoman, said.
Which of the following is NOT the reason for colleges to change their names?
A.They prefer higher education competition.
B.They try to gain advantage in market share.
C.They want to project their image.
D.They hope to make some changes.
