In this week's podcast, I argue that despite these challenges...

• switch to test-optional policies


• de-emphasis on writing


• violent protests on campuses


• elevation of DEI above merit 


• rise of radical antisemitism


• increase in made-up majors


• employers turning off recruitment


• incompetent school presidents


• rampant plagiarism among top faculty  


• cancellation of graduation ceremonies


• racial segregation of dorm rooms


• students disowning their parents


• $100K/year college bills

...we have reason to be hopeful.
