State
Latent functions of education are its hidden, unintended byproducts, such as courtship, social networks, and political and social integration.
Show
A network formed among classmates decades ago persists today mainly through a professional social-media group, a channel the curriculum never intended to build.
Watch for
Latent functions are still real effects; unintended is not the same as unimportant.
