For this article, I do not entirely agree with the author’s intend upon writing it. Although Pluralism is a subjective concept that is being widely used in colleges and universities today, there is no issue with the teaching of equitable standards in the classrooms. Equity, in all standards, should be recognized in all grade level classrooms, because recognizing one’s privilege and difference between their peers is essential to gaining an appreciation for diversity. Pluralism should not be used to degrade a student for their opinions, but rather teach them the significance of difference in the world in which they live. One’s taste in music or art is not on the same caliber of social equity preference. It is quite possible that I am misinterpreting what the author is attempting to say; yet, it seems to me that he/she is questioning the power of Pluralism too literally.
