The Equality of Opportunity Trap.
Molnar, Alex
Educational Leadership, v43 n1 p60-61 Sep 1985
The author contends that education is implicated in the perpetuation of social inequity if it continues to present itself as the institution through which equality of opportunity is realized. Educators will make a step toward equity when they recognize that students do not have equal opportunity. (MD)
