The Cost of Education
Manage episode 472361360 series 2649833
When Russia invaded Ukraine, there was a brain drain from Russia. The best and brightest left for better opportunities. The U.S. was a beneficiary of that just as we've benefitted from kids from other countries, where little academic opportunity existed, coming to the U.S. But now we're seeing the government pull back on funding and threatening other schools that graduates won't be hired if curriculums aren't in line with political objectives. Tom and Dylan discuss the repercussions of this on this week's episode.
