Unicon Corporation made the following notes about this variable:
A user from PPIC who has compared education distributions over time between the CPS and the Census, has concluded that people with grdhi=13 and grdcom=2 (did not complete grade) should be coded as "with some college" when trying to match grdatn codes with earlier years.
