Reaction to Hodgkinson's Article on Demographics

In the very beginning of Hodgkinson's article he says, "Nothing is distributed evenly across the United States. Not race, not religion, not age, not fertility, not wealth, and certainly not access to higher education." Although most of us would like to pretend that it is not this way, I would have to agree with this statement. Sure, administration has done what they think to be correct, schools continue to teach, and students continue to attend. This is is all very nice, but the sad fact is that where you live and where you go to school will ultimately determine the type of education you recieve, the resources you have available to you, and the oppurtunities available for you to excel. This all seems to be unfair, but there are plenty of dedicated people who strive to make lives better for students all over the United States and student success stories that make you believe in the overused expression that education makes a difference; because i believe that yes, it indeed makes a major difference.
