Summary Introduction

Introduction:

Kendall said that West could not prove her hypothesis because she did not consider antecedent variables that could influence success, specifically, socioeconomic class of the student. Wealthy families can afford to send their children to Ivy League schools, and also have connections in business that can benefit their children regardless of their college experience. We can conclude from West that rich people are more likely to send their kids to Ivy League colleges.
