Открою вам, кто самый лучший из мужчин, И кто на свете всех других дороже! Он - самый мой любимый, он - мой сын, И никого роднее быть не может.

Louis Menand

Menand, Dewey, p. 1

He is a social veiw of college.

This relates to Menand's first theory, in how we have changed as a society. Now people can get good paying jobs without any college experience, and increase their social class. 

I think that this quote can be connected to the Menand article because it relates to the fact that rather as taking college as a race to the top we shoould look at it as a sacrifice and a struggle for personal and intellectual growth.

In this article http://21stcenturyscholar.org/2009/08/03/rich-vs-poor-in-college-admissions/ it talks about how high school students are not prepared for college with their writing skills and lack of knowledge where things are on campus and how one guy tries to get a summer program going to help the students but unless your parents have money you can't afford to attend this summer program and he can't get any funds to support this program for less wealthy people. just like the article of how only rich people could go to college till the military soliders  got money to go to college.
