data-start-time='9604' data-end-time='23229'>A college degree usually leads to higher pay, stronger job security, a greater chance of home ownership and comparatively secure family life.</span> <span data-start-time='23229' data-end-time='30354'>These qualities have long been seen as worth the sacrifices often required.</span> <span data-start-time='30354' data-end-time='42542'>Those sacrifices can include the money spent paying off student loans and the years waiting for a return on one’s investment in higher education.</span> <span data-start-time='42542' data-end-time='51958'>Yet U.S. college graduates are not as likely as they once were to feel they belong to the middle class.</span> <span data-start-time='51958' data-end-time='59917'>That is a finding of the 2018 General Social Survey, or GSS.</span> <span data-start-time='59917' data-end-time='72167'>The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research and GSS researchers jointly examined the study.</span> <span data-start-time='72167' data-end-time='81458'>They found that 35 percent of college graduates described themselves as working or lower class.</span> <span data-start-time='81458' data-end-time='89250'>That’s an increase from 1983 when only 20 percent felt that way.</span> </p></div><div class='control-buttons-sticky' style='display:none;'><div class='control-buttons'><button
