Problematic Faves: Liberal Arts Education (with Meredith Yayanos!)

The Sauce with Maya Gurantz and Rebecca Cohen

Intellectual expansion! Youthful passion! Exploited innocence! Genius writer, musician, and professional flame-throwing shit-starter Meredith Yayanos, comes on to talk about their problematic fave: Liberal Arts Education. What does college MEAN in the social imaginary? What did it mean to us? Cronyism, elitism, pranks, nubility, narcissistic faculty, racism, classism, date rape, Jeffrey Epstein, the hangover of 60s counterculture, DEI, panicked articles in The NY Times about what the kids are doing, Real Genius, Rules of Attraction, Good Will Hunting Animal House, A Different World, Revenge of the Nerds, and Genny Cream Ale.
