  • Summary

  • The Tragic Cost of Academic Achievement

    Here is my interview with Pam Roy, a meaningful education advocate and the co-founder of Straight-Up Impact & The Viktor Frankl Institute of America

    Striving for academic excellence & achievement is a common measure of success at many schools across the world

    Grades & test scores have become a default measurement & predictor of one's success later in life

    Few people actually question the legitimacy behind this arbitrary definition of success

    Even fewer people are aware of the REAL, TRAGIC COST of academic achievement Which is why I launched this weekly live show, WHAT IS SCHOOL FOR

    Its purpose is to DISCUSS, DEBATE & DISRUPT #ducation so that we become educated about the unknown & undiscussed ramifications behind today's education model
