Local universities recognized for helping low-income students

Two Inland Empire universities are among the best in the United States at enrolling low-income students and graduating them into well-paying jobs.

UC Riverside and Cal Poly Pomona were in the top of the 2017 Social Mobility Index, which was released Tuesday.

The index is compiled by CollegeNET, a Portland, Ore.-based company that develops web technology used by colleges and universities.
