1:03:10Now PlayingTwo professors walk into a conversation neither intended to have. Government money has warped curriculum, plagiarism protects the credentialed class, peer review defends consensus rather than challenging it, and students have been trained to perform compliance and call it thinking.
Formal education has become an organized religion, complete with heretics, orthodoxy, and excommunication, and almost nobody inside the institution is willing to admit it. Economist @BryanDCaplan and Peter Boghossian discuss the corruption, and then ask the question nobody in academia wants answered: Is it possible to teach students to genuinely change their minds and become more humble about what they claim to know?
