In this episode, Kelly sits down with Columbia University’s Andy Delbanco to get to the heart of the matter. And the answer, of course, has a lot of heart — Delbanco believes a key takeaway of a liberal arts education is learning the ways in which we depend on each other, for better and more fulfilling lives.
This episode touches on the importance of conducive spaces, how a child learns to think for themselves, and how they’ll push back on the idea of being who the world wants them to be (and find who they are meant to be in the process).
Also — stay tuned for an important story about Delbanco adjusting his own perspective when he encourages students from all backgrounds to share their point of view.
