social issues in US

Now that you’ve had a chance to sink your teeth into Putnam and you’ve read thru the book, we have a lot we can cover.

Please read the reading material and then start your work. Your work should related to the reading we gave you.

Given all the ways that inequality seems to be present in American society AND how this clearly shapes opportunity, what do you think we should do about it? This IS, in fact, EXACTLY why we need higher education in democracies: so that you are well informed, critical thinkers, capable of engaging with fellow citizens regarding important topics. What would you support doing? What seems like a good idea? Putnam gives a bunch of suggestions in the final chapter, but they are broad.
