The euphoric concept that everyone is special and everyone is a winner, even though no commitment and effort is made by the so called "special", creates delusive sense of victory. This leads to a dopamine addiction which everyone must get every now and then to feel good. This habit after some time, becomes a routine requirement amd sense of entitlement to get a quick appreciation without genuine effort. In the long term, this creates an army of narcissistic citizens who are used to a 'certificate of attendance'. In the long term such "baseless winning" prevents the need for grit and consistent efforts to achieve anything significant and meaningful since the mental reward system that push us to perform consistently towards a certain goal would have already received its dopamine. This is dangerous and one of the biggest inhibitor in the way of realising one's TRUE POTENTIAL. Agree?
Watched this with my children. This is an excellent high school graduation speech from David McCullough Jr., son of famous historian and author David McCullough. He argues against the "everyone is special" nonsense narrative that seems to have overtaken high schools and little league fields across the country. Here are a few of my favorite lines: "If everyone is special, then no one is. If everyone receives a trophy, trophies become meaningless....We've come to love accolades more than genuine achievement. We've come to see them as the point, and we're happy to compromise standards or ignore reality if we suspect that's the quickest way, or the only way, to have something to put on the mantlepiece...Climb the mountain not to plant your flag, but to embrace the challenge, enjoy the air, and behold the view. Climb it so you can see the world, not so the world can see you." https://lnkd.in/eQRHNW_C

I had the privilege of sharing the importance of breadth as embodied in the College of the Ozarks general education curriculum which prepares students to tackle a wide range of tasks at work and in life. Breadth is important for engineering graduates, half of whom are not in explicit engineering roles, as well as any graduate who wants to be prepared for the wonderfully diverse world we live in. https://lnkd.in/gWBcYERe
I am passionate about equipping and resourcing Christian colleges and universities and their faculty to faithfully educate students.
It was a pleasure to moderate a discussion at the Faithful Education Convocation last night about how the General Education Program here at College of the Ozarks helps prepare students to thrive in their God-given #vocations and #callings. Thanks to Stacy McNeill, Ed.D., Mark Nowack, and Joseph Western for sharing your insights as part of our faculty panel. Thanks also to Janna Goodwin for all your help organizing things behind the scenes. Finally, thanks to all the faculty here at the College who invest your time, energy, and passion into teaching General Education courses!

Great to see a couple of the many amazing IUSD programs "spotlighted" in KTLA's School Spirit Spotlight segment. These programs demonstrate the powerful impact academic programs can have when you integrate academic disciplines, as in the case of Career Technical Education (CTE) and the Arts. #ctemonth #cte #WHS
