Class Rooms Kenneth Oldfield University of Illinois-Springfield ABSTRACT This paper uses a personal narrative format to recount an emeritus professor of public administration’s ongoing study of how social class and socioeconomic origins shape various aspects of bureaucracy, with special emphasis on the sorting function of formal education and its subsequent effects on personnel selection. Following an account of his family background, he summarizes his recent findings on the relationship between class and administration, followed by a sampling of remedies he proposes for bringing socioeconomic issues, especially the effects of inherited social, financial, and cultural capital, into the mainstream of our discipline. The author argues that by implementing these changes, we will not only prove we are the “cutting edge” enterprise we claim to be, but our actions will provoke other fields to enact similar democratic and egalitarian reforms. My father died of leukemia in 1948. 1 I was 16 months old. Dad had been working as a truck driver making deliveries around Moundsville, a small mill town in the northern panhandle of West Virginia. My mother, an illegitimate child, as people said then, and I moved in with my grandmother and her elderly father right after my dad’s death. We all lived together for a couple of years until my mother remarried and moved away, leaving me with my grandmother and great-grandfather. My grandmother’s husband, not my mother’s biological father, had been committed to a mental institution several years before. As I understood it, he was shell-shocked, the description in vogue at the time, in World War I and his doctors eventually sent him to the state mental institution in Weston, West Virginia. My grandmother had, at best, an eighth-grade education and worked as a cook at a local greasy spoon restaurant six days a week from 5:30 a.m. until 1:30 p.m. She always came home smelling of grease and sweat, more than ever in the summer when the kitchen was unbelievably hot. When she got home, she immediately took a bath and a short nap. She retired at age 65 and despite her long years of hard work, lived to age 91. I am guessing her father, a retired farmer she cared for over the course of several years and who died in his mid 80s, went as far as sixth grade, if that.
