BACK TO SCHOOL: MIT's disappearing Black student population, Affirmative Action, and sea changes in higher ed

About this episode

Hello!

Welcome back to school everyone. This week, we talk about an article in the New York Times that asks whether we infantilize students and whether we should start treating 18 year old college kids like adults. We also get into the admissions numbers out of MIT after the Affirmative Action Supreme Court and whether we might be seeing a sea change in how the public looks at prestigious Ivy League institutions (as in they hate them now).

Enjoy!
