- Totally interesting, you guys. Stanford is going to start gearing their humanities Ph.D.s toward teaching high school. It's also trying to get time-to-completion to five years. This kind of reform seems great for many reasons and for many students. But what if it becomes the next big thing?
- I've seen a lot of "how to be more productive" blog posts out there, and I think this is one of the good ones.
- The University World News has been focusing a number of articles on the global flow of credentialed people. While China and Italy try to plug up years of brain drain, the Dutch are trying to get foreign grad students to stay and work. Germany wants to do the same, even though they've previously viewed catch and release as part of their aid mission. And others, like Russia, are trying to become education destinations.
- The plight of the overly-hyped public intellectual. We in America should be so lucky.
