Maximizing economic and cultural opportunity
The broad expansion of free education results both in raising the average economic and cultural level of the society and in promoting fluidity within the social structure.
Fifty years ago the general raising of the school-leaving age to sixteen was an example of this movement.
During the past decade the program has been carried on through expansion of free higher education in state universities, state colleges, and community colleges.
The reaffirmation of American faith in the comprehensive high school, as expressed in the Conant study, is another indication of the liveliness of the ideal of maximizing opportunity through the equalizing of educational opportunity.
