Paying for the Party
Paying for the Party | Elizabeth A. Armstrong, Laura T. Hamilton
3 posts | 2 read | 4 to read
In an era of skyrocketing tuition and concern over whether college is “worth it,” Paying for the Party is an indispensable contribution to the dialogue assessing the state of American higher education. A powerful exposé of unmet obligations and misplaced priorities, it explains in detail why so many leave college with so little to show for it.

What is it about my sociology ready that stir up so much in me?
Fascinating read about class and how university is not the path to upward success as society portrays. Great read.
Finished it as I stand at the school district board meeting to fight the closing of my son‘s STEM high school. Happy Monday.

Why is having dinner solo with a book an odd thing? No really, it‘s just me. #homework #hellorelevance #hilitsyimissedyou
