[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Education is one of the new status symbols. Newer generations are less materialistic but not less status-seeking. [/quote] It’s not a symbol. Higher education actually DOES carry higher status.[/quote] Ugh. What do you mean, it’s not a symbol? Status is a symbol, it’s not reflecting an objective, tangible thing that you can grasp. It’s something that humans came up with, and therefore is symbolic. We choose things like money, beauty, education as symbols of status, but we could easily have chosen other things. My point is, you say that higher education carries higher status, as if that is some fact of nature. It doesn’t carry higher status any more than any other thing. [/quote] Uhm it actually does. A harvard or Stanford educated person is considered an elite in this country. [/quote]
