Manage episode 378043153 series 3409528
Ben Samuels & Max Feigelson are current Deep Springs College students who have joined the podcast this week to discuss their experiences at the infamous Deep Springs College cattle ranch campus for cowboy philosophers and future world leaders.
Both Ben & Sam attended Bard High School in New York City. In the podcast, they remark on the drastic differences between Deep Springs and most other institutions of higher education, including the academic rigor, diversity of perspectives, and the way in general that colleges market and promote themselves -- namely, the promotion of luxury experiences at many state schools.
