The State of Education in The US 10/29/11

After thinking about the state of education and its future, I Googled education. I came across some links to different articles and here are their topics.

Access to education, public, private, location, universities, higher learning
Curriculum: sex education
Useless and Useful Degrees
Food in schools
Bullying
Back to school
Public Intellectuals
Social media and students

After thinking about those topics I think these are the issues our education system is currently facing. 

- Education and wealth
- Sex and America
- Health and schools
- Student relationships
- The value of education in society
- School events
- Student identities, student interactions

It's hard for me to not think about how involved capitalism/business/profit and "American" values are in the current state and future of our education system. I'll think more about this and post later.

Peace.
