Question:

What is coffee's connection between age and education?

I am writing a paper about how coffee has become a status symbol. both coffee companies starbucks and tim hortons in sell the same product, but creates and caters to complete different lifestyles. starbucks is high culture, and tim hortons is low culture.
my prof suggested to look beyond the class and focus on education and age. I don't exactly see the connection. I would greatly appreciate suggestions if you see the connection.

THanks!

umm well the best i can think of is that coffe has a lot of caffiene in it, which speeds up your metabolism. metabolism is the thing that makes you age. also, it's mostly adults that drink coffee, and i remember as a little kid i always wanted to try it but my parents wouldn't let me because i was "too young"

education? it keeps you awake during school?

haha i dont know if you were looking for something literal or figurative... that's the best i can do. have fun with your project
