Abstract
Education is considered to be the primary means to realizing American ideals of equality and success. This course critically examines that idea from a sociological perspective by looking at educational opportunities and outcomes on individual, institutional, and societal levels and by analyzing the roles class, race, and gender play in these processes. Students will be required to research local school systems and to incorporate that analysis in an oral and written report at the end of the semester.
