. *What this tells us is, first, that the power of educational endogamy is

different depending on how much education you have.

Educational endogamy is highest at the top and the bottom of the educational distribution. Secondly, this model fits a lot better than the previous model, which is another way of

showing that the force of educational endogamy is not uniform across educational groups. The difference between this and the previous model is about 35K on 3df.
