Posted this morning at Electric Politics, an interview with Wick Sloane on higher education reform. Wick, a Yale MBA and formerly high muckety-muck at a giant state university is now embedded at Bunker Hill Community College, in Boston, where he teaches expository writing. Wick also blogs at the website Inside Higher Ed. He asks, what to do with the 99% of college students who don't get into the top schools? Shouldn't people who want to go to college be able to get a degree? And must it be a four year degree? Wick's a sensible guy, an inspiration, and a real, albeit low-key, radical.
