In fact, the “wealthy elite” have always been educated as societies “corporate managers” also known as “ the managerial class” while the rest of society are “ the working class” or “the poor” often inheriting their father or mothers professions. Higher education was mostly exclusionary, a societal separator. A good job means more money and stability right, but which came first? The education or the job ( chicken-and-egg dilemma)? Education at one point in our history, was for the elite, the first class citizen who’s family could afford it or possibly from a rare break out learner that made for themselves opportunity. Is it not? Just wait! You will hear it! It is also the promise of every brochure or commercial from a college or university. Horace Mann, the godfather of “public education” in the United States, made statements in the 1830’s that education could lead to getting a “good job” which can therefore strengthen the economy and is still used by politicians today. History and Evolution of Public Education in the US Remember the historical context here, the nation was being built!Įducating children of the poor and middle classes would prepare them to obtain good jobs, proponents argued, and thereby strengthen the nation’s economic position. In part historically, there was motivation for establishing centralized educational institutions as a mechanism to push the economy forward spurring growth with the promise of “good jobs” by a few foundational leaders in the early 1800’s. With respect to an education model in the United States, for a time, there is only a hint of “business” when you look at the history only later being co-opted by business interests. How is it we find ourselves in a situation of low literacy, low competency and having shortages of opportunity for “good jobs” with a diminished work ethic? We do very little root cause analysis often blaming the symptom in bipartisan fashion, rather than blaming the actual disease. The United States now, having been built, we do not think about how we got here. Centralized educational institutions became a part of “ nation building” and for some with means a way to preserve personal values among their offspring for a number of reasons. How or why do you think we have the present education model in the United States? The vast majority of children in the United States attend public institutions of “ primary, secondary and higher education” right? But why? This is perhaps an initiative historically birthed with good intentions in mind but that later devolved into a business model and a model to indoctrinate a captured class of impressionable children as we currently find it with factions of left and right bickering about nonsense as it relates to “education”.
