Answer to Question #215752 in Sociology for hangwy

Question

Which social class do you think teachers are in? Provide a reason for your answer. 

Answer 1

The working class

Teachers may acquire some “middle-class culture” by attending college, but they have limited authority over their coworkers and are subservient to management. So, sure, they are a better-educated section of the working class, and they are, in my judgment, a skilled segment of the working class.
