One does not pass through the university system unchanged. It is the intellectual factory of Corporate America, whose intention is to educate us to be law-abiding consumers-citizens. More insidiously, the university functions to separate us from the people of our origins, which in effect neutralizes whatever potential Impact our education might have on them. The university allows a benign liberalism, even a healthy degree of radical transgressive thought, as long as it remains just that: thought translated into the conceptual language of the dominant class, and as such rendered useless to the rest of us (Moraga 173).
