Scott Scheall spent the majority of his academic career at Arizona St. University, the largest university in the world, and is now a professor at the University of Austin, perhaps the smallest university in the world.
Expect to learn about the bureaucracy that exists in large academic institutions and the perverse incentives in place that make it so difficult for faculty to deliver a quality education. We dive into the war on free speech inside of college campuses and what the University of Austin is doing to protect free speech as a core pillar of the academic education it is delivering. And we talk about how Scott was a direct casualty of the war against free speech and exploration of free ideas at ASU.
