“I have never let schooling interfere with my education.” – Mark Twain
Education is one of the most important innovations the world has ever produced. The ability of individuals to pass on their hard-won knowledge and experience to another, in a fraction of the time it took to acquire, is a feat of incredible intellectual leverage. Today, we mine more than 50,000 new PhDs per year in the U.S. alone. Yet, with democratization of education has come standardization, the streamlining of teaching for the convenience of educators and administrators. In this episode, Patrick K. Sullivan and Catherine Cruz discuss how multidisciplinary early education gives way to specialization at the grad and post-graduate levels and how this narrow domain of expertise can be a disaster for innovation if left unchecked.
