Also KappaKittyCat, I'm not sure what you mean where you live in Canada has bearing on where you go to school. Isn't it the same in the US?

Lady Pi Phi, you're right. It is the same in the US. I was responding to the following incorrect assertion in the original article.

from the Crary article, originally posted by KillarneyRose
"The U.S. educational system is unfair - you have to live in certain areas to go to good schools,'' [Hodges] said.

Regarding the educational institutions: is it possible she was talking about grade school, not university? I know that until they put "magnet" schools in my home town, if you lived in a certain geographical area, you pretty much had to go to the school in that area, even if it wasn't the best.

I don't know if this is a widely observed practice all over the US though.
