The points that Allitt portrays in this essay were very intriguing to me. The way he presents the pros and cons of the schooling systems in Britain and America brought up certain points that I had never thought of before. Something that many people should reflect on is his argument that education isn't "one size fits all." There are ups and downs to both specialized and liberal arts education; consequently, neither of these systems are perfect. Allitt's essay provoked in me the idea that education will probably never fitsociety's exact needs or interests. Some students are ready for a vocational school right out of high school, and some need that broad spectrum that a liberal arts school provides so they can find what it is they want to pursue.
