Education and the Market Place
Let me start by saying I am a professional who works in Higher Education and I genuinely enjoy reading about Higher Ed for fun. However, this book was absolutely brutal to get through. There was no new or unexpected research in this work. The entirety could simply be summed up like this: as a whole, Yale students generally come from higher SES and more privileged backgrounds than other non-Ivy college students.
Another gripe I had were the quotes from the students at both Yale and Southern. Did Mullen purposefully only include the most mindless, grammatically incorrect quotes from these students?! All of the "like" and "ya know" talk really distracted the reader. These students are Ivy League! There must be better quotes to feature in all of her interview recordings than the quotes she chose!
