Activity 1.4

What does it mean to be educated?

What being "educated" means is entirely dependent on who you ask. To most people, being educated implies a certain amount of advanced schooling, whether this be through a technical college, undergraduate college, or graduate school. Depending on the population in which you live your educated status can change. If I work in a school I will be considered relatively "educated" based on the degrees I hold. However, if I work in a university I will be considered below average not having attained a PhD. I believe there is a difference between being educated and knowledgeable or skillful and I do not believe any one has more merit than another.
