Show Notes

Chris and Stephen take three recent articles about the super-structure of how our society pays for college and scrutinize the issue. How does American society value what college delivers? (What does it deliver?) How do we fund it? Should we fund it? We take the time not just to ponder, but to celebrate an unlikely organization that\\u2019s doing some incredibly innovative moves in the space. Also Stephen inadvertently insults a whole group of people. Sorry about that.\\n
