Hildi has selected her courses for the academic year, but after one week she finds that two of the courses do not interest her. She plans a meeting with her guidance counselor to rearrange her schedule. If this school is accurately represented by the “shopping mall high school” model, her guidance counselor will most likely:

• provide her with a series of forms to fill out and steps to complete so that her registration will be accurate.

• tell her that it is a poor habit to switch courses so early in the year; she should learn to apply herself and develop good work habits for the future.

• show her the course listings of numerous other courses available at her requested times and sign her drop/add sheet to expedite the process.

• encourage her to take courses that will best further her goals.

One drawback of using schools as vehicles for cultural transmission is that:

• time limitations will prevent students from studying all the important works necessary for them to understand the culture.

• students may then not be able to recognize the merits of any other culture besides the dominant one of their society.

• teachers cannot both prepare students to go to college and impart the benefit of the culture to the students.

• schools have achieved limited success in cultural transmission.
