An Analysis on ""Are Too Many People Going to College"" Charles Murray’s essay proposes that American colleges are being flooded

with individuals who are either unprepared for higher education or who are simply forced into attending college and can’t succeed because of the lack of certain innate abilities. Murray’s essay goes on to take issue with the idea that the pursuit of a traditional college education is somehow strategically creating a separation of the American class system.

Answer:

I think he´s (partly) right

Explanation:

Partly right because yes, colleges are flooded with individuals who seem to be out of place and not learning anything that they could have learned outside the school building. Murray´s essay follows quite clearly the opinion of Noam Chomsky.  The strategical creation of a separated American class system is a daring theory that needs some (personal) coments because of its elitist element, i.e. we who study have (keep) the power.  

Two examples:

México is a democracy in name where the powerful and rich people send their kids - no matter how stupid they are - to college schools and private universities that only exist as the entry door to a well-paid job. And even if you don´t go to university you can always buy your degree, as former president Fox did.

Germany is a real democracy that has a social education system. It is costly but the economic support (bafug in German) for students is based on how much your parents earn. If your parents are poor you get more money per month to study and vice versa.

Now kindly look at the American educational system and see if it resembles more the Mexican or the German system.

PART A: Which of the following best describes a central theme of the text?
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

1. A. Faith shows people what is right.

2. C. "The midwives, however, feared God and did not do what the king of Egypt had told them to do; they let the boys live." (Paragraph 17)

Explanation:

The given passage is part of the story of the children of Israel in Egypt. This passage reveals their ordeal in the hands of Pharoah, king of Egypt. He mandated the midwives to kill the children of the Hebrew women that are males. But the passage clearly staated the midwives feared God and didn't obey.

This is faith in action. The fear of God they had depicted that they had faith in God and that led them to do what is right. They rejected and refused to carry out the king's devilish commandments because they had faith in God as a result of their fear in God. Faith in God makes us to do what is right.
