  • This season, Malcolm's covered a lot of the problems in higher education. Today on the show: A solution. A big idea being tested at a little school on the shores of Lake Michigan. A school called Hope College, believe it or not, with an idea so crazy it just might work.
    Season 8 (2023)

    ABOUT REVISIONIST HISTORY
    Revisionist History is Malcolm Gladwell’s journey through the overlooked and the misunderstood. Every podcast episode re-examines something from the past - an event, a person, an idea, even a song - and asks whether we got it right the first time. Because sometimes the past deserves a second chance.

    Thank you Malcolm for putting the spotlight on this and so many other things in life that as we walked by them would have otherwise registered as merely a glimpse, .. You have found a "special purpose", to quote Mr. Martin. Have a wonderful day.

      I messed around too long to be treated so carelessly! I went to graduate school and got my MBA. I ranked 97th percentile on my GM AT, so they lost a brilliant teacher because they were incompetent! I entered a Graphics Program and was hired before I could finish the program.

    I was an IT project manager in Toronto about 35 years ago. I hired about a dozen Co-op students from Waterloo. The ones that didn't work out tended to be from affluent families who could afford to send their kids anywhere.

    Enlightening story! Imagine our country and world if these concepts spread. I believe the by product of all the good, our mental illness crisis would be significantly improved. ❤

    That program they built in Haiti is beyond words. It had me in tears visualizing an orphan holding another baby in need because they themselves know how important that act is. I commend all those involved and am absolutely inspired to do more myself. My wife has a local NPO that I help out with, but there is so much more that needs to be done! Thank you so much for the story and bringing notice to these programs.

    What a beautiful story of what true hope looks like, sounds like, feels like, and does! Please write "The Book of Hope." I'm sure you will have lots of help.

    I'm grateful Mr. Gladwell continues to uniquely outreach to the masses to help flip the script from the R. Reagan, M. Friedman and J. Welch chapters of the American novel where unabated capitalism and materialism were worshipped. Hopefully, we Americans can be open to following a new narrative. One where knowledge is desired and equitably shared. And we no longer think we are the center of the universe. Open to learn from others across the globe. Low-cost/no-cost education exists in a significant number of developed economies. Our first step is to diminish greed. Oh that's a tough one, but what better way to begin with a college called Hope.

    American higher (elite) education is infuriating in so many ways. Feels as if education itself is its SRCONDARY function.

      ​@@rebeccarobrahn8012Thank you.
      We need more people like you.
      I tried many iterations of Yeh, coals, Bentley, I-95, Newcastle, etc., to no avail.
      I only have a green belt in Google fu.

    Berea College in Kentucky requires everyone to work a minimum of 10 hours on campus. My understanding is that no one borrows to attend.

      Ozark College (I believe it's called) outside of Branson has a similar model

    I am so impressed with the work of Albom in Haiti but I really have wondered since Tuesday with Morrie's if Albom is really being motivated by his knowledge of self looking back at his reporting on Michigan's Fab Five that left to himself he is racist. The result of his reporting abolished pipeline athletics in Detroit destroying and/or preventing the hatching of athletic dreams and a way out for many in young "possibles" in Detroit. Of course, Haiti is worst off than Detroit but there is work there. Is there more comfort to the ego in missionary work than collaborative charity? I'm just pondering.

    I graduated from the University of Minnesota without a great deal of debt, because education was cheap in h to he sixties. However, they were really bad at finding jobs for their graduates. I graduated from the college of education with 120 in my specialty (social studies-history), but only 15 got jobs (the bad news was that 7 were in Australia. This concept would really help!

    no one should have to pay for hope? perhaps we should make what psychopathic climate catastrophe profiteers, like the oil industry and war profiteers, hope for prohibitively expensive. perhaps we should make their freedom doubtful.

    Can we fire nuclear weapons into outer space? That's important in case we come under alien attack.

    This story was sure to have benefited from switching off the silly if understandable denial storybooks, the sort foisted upon the young in their formative-most years. Almost mirthful hearing these otherwise shrewd college students talk of a god character as though anyone not given to internal redaction and inveterate denial, could actually take such onboard.
