I believe formal education, even at the higher level, is a tool both for innovation and conformity. I know it is contradictory but the curriculum universities follow are a reflection of the elite's take on science, history and politics. Students are given these valuable clues to understand their reality and it is up to each individual mind to accept them, and do what Helen Keller's quote says (lack ideas, imitate, recycle and shy away from originality) or it is also possible that once people understand the system they come up with a new angle or a new wave of social and political understanding. Education through institutions, even if it is not meant to do it, stifles creativity. People can revive it and use the knowledge to support new ideas, but it is easy to be numb. Some go to college/university to get a degree, that will get them a job, that will help them have a standard life. These people are not out to innovate and generate ideas. They are out to design a life style and that is respectable. Others acquire higher education seeking inspiration and wide horizons. If people stay true to that project, I am sure they can overcome the institution and go for the knowledge that empowers and drives new ideas. Academia is a hard thing to go against. Keller spent her entire life being an exception to the norm, as a woman and as a person with disabilities. I am not an expert in her life (or anything close to that) but perhaps this comment is a reflection of her own experience, as a pioneer for disabled women who tried to change things and inspire change but was met with the apathy and comformity that characterizes those who are in positions of power. College professors and authorities are not above the influence authority and prestiege. They can and do prevent innovation sometimes, in order to protect their own research and positions. It is possible that she encountered a few of these people during her career.

I think I do agree with her. From the way I see it, neither a high school nor college that is composed of a majority or all of one population is the right place to be exposed to a variety of ideas and insight. I obviously didn't attend Radcliffe or any all-girls school so I can't know if my thoughts are in sync with Helen Keller’s, but from what has been my experience, students that attend schools that consist of a majority population (like Radcliffe was as a sister school) don't have a large breadth of knowledge about an infinite number of things that they haven't been exposed to as much as students from a diverse school. I know you attended an all-girls school and I am in no way trying to offend anyone who does; I'm speaking rather generally here and this applies particularly to Keller because even though she attended a prestigious women’s college, she did so at the turn of the 20th century. I attended a small liberal arts private junior high school of 80-something kids. Everyone was super-quirky, a bit odd, and very artsy. I thought we were all so different especially because we were ethnically diverse. When I left for high school I realized that we had all seen been trained to see through a rose tinted lens. I went to a public high school which was 180 degrees in the opposite direction as my middle school. It was super conservative, preppy, people flaunted their wealth, and disliked anyone who stood out. That last one was hard for me to not do and I felt very isolated and lonely. Everyone seemed to think in the same way and no one was really interesting, or at least not apparently. I began to feel for the “others”. Our school database only accommodated these ethnicities which were filled in on each standardized test: Asian, Caucasian, Other. That’s listed in largest to smallest. Anyway my point is that I learned a lot at these exceptional schools but that didn’t change the fact that I was so unprepared to face “the real world” and I still felt so naïve and inexperienced as I left for college. The only thing that kept me grounded and thinking abstractly was travel. I couldn’t find myself gaining a different or more evolved perspective from my peers. Truthfully, I didn’t learn much from them and college is only somewhat shaping my character and allowing me to absorb more and just reflect. High school predominantly just felt like academic ennui and everyone was so disgustingly competitive; no one really “shared” ideas and those who did had to keep to themselves because others discouraged it. I completely agree with Troy. Education really does trump creativity hence hindering the capability to think outside the box. I wish more educational institutions would make more of an effort to find a progressive way to incorporate the two because in the long run I truly believe it would be much more beneficial than just simply learning about this subject or that career. Perhaps people are hesitant to deviate from the tried-and-true method of teaching and find it challenging and daunting to teach in such a non-traditional way. I find it sad that society is so adverse to anomaly and I commend Miss Keller for being such a transcendent, strong woman. Well that's just my 2 cents. Don't take anything too seriously from an undergrad who's trying to milk a lifelong valuable way of thinking from her college. C'est la vie. Maybe graduate school will be of more use in this endeavor. What about you? Do you agree with Helen Keller?
