Of course, its true that higher education is still important. For example, in the UK, Prime Minister Blair was close to achieving his aim of getting 50 per cent of all under thirties into college by 2010 (even though a cynic would say that this was to keep them off the unemployment statistics). 3 现在，政治、社会和创造意识的觉醒似乎不是凭借大学的助力，而是冲破其阻力才发生的。当然，一点不假，高等教育仍然重要。例如，在英国，布莱尔首相几乎实现了到 2010 年让 50的 30 岁以下的人上大学的目标（即使愤世嫉俗的人会说，这是要把他们排除在失业统计数据之外）Language in Use3I never hoped to understand the nature of my generation or how American colleges are changing by going to Lit Theory classes.

But when I went to the kitchen to get a drink, something clicked and made me realize that the solution might be quite simple.
