(-1)

We are sometimes told not to let schooling interfere with our education. This class will investigate educational theories which contest the idea that schools exist primarily to promote learning. Alternatives to be explored include the correspondence theory (Bowles and Gintis), the reproduction of cultural capital (Bourdieu), and the credentials race as expounded in David Labaree.
