"...it is worth listening closely to what the brighter and more motivated of the current group of students are thinking about how this economy should be organised. Taking students seriously to me means trying to intellectually engage with those of them with good ideas rather than just nodding sympathetically when they whinge about courseloads. College should be a practice swing at thinking big ideas, a chance to do them as a set of rehearsals before the real thing starts."

What a great read..! Thanks for posting it up Stephen. Sometimes education seems like a never-ending series of mass production. Its good to know that there are some who care about it.
Thanks Niamh! More links like that then!
