Since I've spent time working in education my attitudes might be biased, but I do see education as a main avenue for integrating folk into the national culture. And this can be done without violating any rights of people to practice their native culture. So, contrary to the posts some have made in this thread, it is possible to promote a national cultural identity without infringing on rights or asserting some sort of white Anglo superiority nonsense.
Isn't this what is actually happening in practice? Isn't this what most people mean by "multiculturalism"?
As I see it, most of the objections to multiculturalism come from a made up right wing faux outrage.
