Excellent Sheep: The Miseducation of the American Elite and the Way to a Meaningful Life by William Deresiewicz
5.0
There’s a lot more here than just an assessment of the current (well, 2014, but still more or less relevant) state of elite college admissions. It contains commentary on social justice and equality of opportunity, the life of the mind, and what we value in ourselves, our employees, and others. While it’s probably incomplete in its analysis, this book is a great source for discussion topics and for challenging what you think you know about the value, and values, of education.
