To me, the four Founders seem to parallel the old educational 
arguments of heterogeneous vs. homogenous grouping.

I don't know that these methods are necessarily discriminatory;  
there are some educators who feel students learn better when grouped 
according to ability, while others do not agree.

But I don't feel it invariably makes the proponents elitist snobs.
