Reading Response (Carey)

Carey organizes his text by first introducing what for-profit universities used to be and how they evolved into a business more than an educational system. He then goes on by discussing who has interests in for-profit universities and its profits, how for-profit universities operate, and how they receive money. I believe the way he organized his text was simply to put everything in context. He gives information that allows the reader to think while they read on to the next sentence or paragraph.

Carey writes in an effective way to allow his readers to be engaged in the text. He asks rhetorical questions and then criticizes information that was presented to him.

Most of Carey's text seem very persuasive. He presents a great argument between how for-profit schools are funded and ran like a business and whether or not the schools provide the education that's worth paying for.
