I think its very interesting how sirken describes how given aspects can be ignored. such as dance, music, basically any type of creativity not having to do with enlgish and math. i highly agree on the topic where he discusses the school education system. ive lived all over the bay area from oakland, san ramon, to san mateo and they all have the same concept when it comes to a heirarchial school system.
also another thing i agree on is the fact that school systems live up to uc and/or csu expectations. i remember being in middle school, hearing which classes i had to take in order to get to a uc. being accepted into a uc when i was a kid basically ment you were a really smart kid and you would be wealthy after you got out. now what is it? a place where professors induce you with their own knowledge, and even after you graduate you are never guaenteed a job. as sirken describes, why do we have bodies? to transport out heads. our bodys are what gives our brain blood flow. without out or body, your brain is nothing. your body is an art form given by god and it should not be taken for granted.
