Today’s guest, Amanda Ripley is an investigative journalist for Time Magazine and The Atlantic. Her reporting on education has explored the interaction between public policy and human behavior. In 2013 she published The Smartest Kids in the World--and How They Got That Way, a New York Times bestseller. One of the biggest stories in higher ed in the past year has been the Starbucks College Achievement Plan, which offers tuition reimbursement for Starbucks employees at Arizona State University Online.
