In this episode of The P.A.S. Report, Professor Nick Giordano is joined by Adam Kissel, author of Slacking: A Guide to Ivy League Miseducation and visiting fellow for higher education reform at The Heritage Foundation. Kissel exposes the rot inside elite institutions, from Columbia University's descent into radicalism to the broader crisis of academic decline and student activism replacing scholarship. He explains why the name on a diploma too often outweighs the quality of education received, how taxpayer dollars are fueling the problem, and what states like Florida are doing to restore civic knowledge and classical learning. This conversation is essential listening for anyone concerned about the future of American higher education.
Episode Highlights:
- How the Ivy League became more about prestige than academic excellence
- Why radicalism and disruptions threaten free speech and civic discourse
- What states can do to bring back classical education and real accountability
