AB  - Provides a model of human capital search by examining college
student migration across states. Tests pertinent investment and
consumption benefits. Employs OLS estimation for 49 states, with unique
measures for college quality, college climate, and college location.
Tests income and price parameters, as well as
“super‐selectivity” among certain college groups. The
variables for price and college quality are highly significant, while
the evidence with consumption benefits remains unresolved. Although
several policy options remain open to college administrations, certain
public choice incentives may act to impede the working of the university
as a “firm”.
