Answer to Question 1

Every answer will be slightly different, but would probably include the following: The manifest function of the university is to prepare the student for a professional career and/or for advanced studies in highly skilled professions such as medicine, law, or engineering. The latent functions include keeping nearly 20 million young people out of the job market, meeting a potential mate, and developing social networks. The corridor curriculum in the university probably includes student opinions of professors, which professors to select for courses, enforcement of stereotypes about different groups of students, information about parties and social events, and other nonacademic issues.

Answer to Question 2

TRUE
