Social Class Stratification

My Sociological Imagination 

Since I have been in college I have noticed  that some people have vehicles and do not have to worry about struggling to get from place to place and some people do not have vehicles and have the constant stress of not being able to get around. What i have noticed is that most of the upper-middle class and upper-class students have nice new rides and the lower-middle class and lower class students have older used vehicles or no vehicle at all. What i have also noticed is that people without vehicles do not always get to go home as much and can get homesick and not want to stay in college or have the stress of not having a ride to get from point a to b  and not able to get a descent job, can eventually take its toll on make you second guess staying in college. So overall what I am trying to say is that the lower-middle class students and the lower class working students sometimes seem to get weeded out of college due to not having as much accessibility or money as the upper-middle class and upper class students with vehicles, and less stress while in college.
