ÜBER DIESE EPISODE

Is our system of American education forming young adults who can achieve nearly anything but discern almost nothing? Are we striving to create masters of facts and monsters of efficiency or men and women of wisdom and purpose? What happens when the "How" of education eclipses the "Why"? Join Yale professor William Deresiewicz and me as we discuss his classic book, Excellent Sheep: The Miseducation of the American Elite and the Way to a Meaningful Life, on The Evangelization & Culture Podcast.
