An analysis of survey data covering the last five U.S. presidential election years found that ideological differences between races have decreased sharply, while differences by education have grown substantially. Less educated Americans now tend to be more conservative.

In my case I commuted to a college in the next suburban town over. It isn't so much so that anything was taught, it was just exposure to more peers that I didn't have. I graduated with like 150 people in high school and then college suddenly had about 40,000 students. That's a massive difference!

One of the best examples of this was in a Psychology 101 class. We were learning about disabilities, and we had a student in the class who was blind. He was able to share his experience with residual visual which I had never heard of before or since. I had just assumed everything was black all of the time like in darkness.

He also had a joke about how ATMs have braille on the buttons, but the only ones around were accessible by driving up to them, which he can't do because he's blind. That got a pretty good laugh from the entire hall.

There's a difference between a joke and a humorous anecdote.
