Episode 82: The New Dream SchoolsWith Jeff SelingoAvailable November 18, 2025What is a “Dream School?” Almost since the college admissions process began, students have had ideas about where they dream they'll end up after high school, and increasingly, those “dream schools” have existed on a very short list of what we think of as prestigious, name-brand institutions. But what if we're wrong about that list? What if everything we think we know about the factors that make a college great has been misguided? Higher education expert Jeff Selingo joins host Debra Wilson for a frank discussion of what needs to change in our approach to college admissions, and his new book, Dream School.Guest: Jeff SelingoResources, Transcript, and Expanded Show NotesIn This Episode:“I want to bring back some normalcy to high school so that not everything is about, not everything you do is about getting into college and into the right college, that you're doing things because you want to challenge yourself. You enjoy them, you want to try new things out…There's so much pressure around me to apply to a certain set of schools, and I wanna change that conversation.” (6:08)“The November 1 deadlines, the October 15th deadlines now, even earlier deadlines, has just moved up the entire college search process now really into the junior year. And then now what used to happen in the junior year is happening in the sophomore year. So you're not even getting through half of high school without really thinking about college.” (11:33)“I mean, the big unknown here, Debra, is the role of AI in the job market. What are the jobs of the future really going to be and what are they going to need? What are the skill sets they're going to need? It was pretty certain over the last 10 years that we've seen, one of the reasons why liberal arts colleges have kind of gone out of favor is because we've seen a huge shift in majors to the business and STEM because parents thought that's where the jobs were…Now parents are asking, huh, what is the, now what's the next major? And by the way, maybe this brings the liberal arts back into vogue and maybe the liberal arts institutions with their ability to have a mix of problem solving and communication and critical thinking and bring in hands-on learning to that, that might bring them back in a way that we didn't quite expect.” (34:14)Related Episodes: 76; 74; 63; 44; 36; 29; 22 Hosted on Acast.

Balanced Euphoria is a deep, groove-driven, late-night soundtrack designed to bring the room from peak intensity into pure after-hours flow. Spanning just over two hours, this mix is my first set built 100% from STEM files, meaning not a single track is played in its original form. Every moment is reconstructed, re-layered, or re-imagined. Across four decks, the set drifts between smooth transitions, hypnotic rhythms, and melodic textures. Roughly 40% is mixed on all four decks, 50% on three decks, and the remaining 10% on two, giving this mix a constantly shifting, evolving feel. Expect subtle grooves, rolling basslines, and carefully balanced energy — the kind of set I'd play in the final hours of a long night, when the dance floor wants to move but also float. Perfect for late-night drives, creative focus, or anyone who loves progressive, melodic, and atmospheric dance music with intention. As always, here is the track listing....BUT, they may not be in the exact order. Most of the tracks have STEMs from being used throughout the set, and layered with others, so yoiun will not hear any original segment of a track by itself. Let the journey unfold.

Minister for Further and Higher Education, Research, Innovation and Science, James Lawless TD, has announced funding of over €3.5 million for 16 research projects under Research Ireland's COALESCE (Collaborative Alliances for Societal Challenges) 2025 programme. COALESCE supports excellent, interdisciplinary research that addresses national and global societal challenges by fostering collaboration between researchers and policymakers, civil society, and enterprise. Announcing the awards, Minister Lawless said: "Harnessing the power of research is key to tackling the most pressing challenges facing our society. These awards are not just about academic excellence - they are about delivering real, tangible benefits for people and communities. Whether it's supporting survivors of gender-based violence, driving climate action, or safeguarding our cultural heritage, these projects will make a meaningful difference. This is research with purpose, and I commend all the awardees for their dedication to the public good." Dr Diarmuid O'Brien, CEO of Research Ireland, commented: "The projects being announced today bring together diverse disciplines, communities, and policy partners to co-create knowledge that matters. We are proud to support projects that amplify underrepresented voices and tackle issues that are often overlooked. These research projects are advancing knowledge, sustainability, justice, and inclusion." Two of the projects are funded by Cuan: The Domestic, Sexual and Gender-Based Violence (DSGBV) Agency, under a newly-launched strategic strand. Dr Stephanie O'Keeffe, Cuan CEO, stated: "Cuan is delighted to partner with Research Ireland to establish a new research funding strand for COALESCE 2025, dedicated to Domestic Sexual and Gender-Based Violence research. A key objective for Cuan is to strengthen the existing knowledge base and build an evidence-informed response to domestic, sexual and gender-based violence, informed by the lived experience of victim-survivors. In this regard, the creation of this important research strand is of great significance to Cuan. "Given so many academic disciplines are of relevance to the study of domestic and sexual violence, Research Ireland's COALESCE funding strand provides a rich opportunity to support action and policy-oriented research, providing much-needed insights for policy makers and practitioners, and improving outcomes for victims and survivors."

Panama City, Panama - 29th October to 1st November - Team Ireland has achieved an outstanding result at the 2025 FIRST Global Challenge, placing 8th in the world, the highest ever finish for Ireland. The event, held this year in Panama City, brought together the brightest young minds in robotics, engineering, and innovation to tackle real-world problems through technology and teamwork. The FIRST Global Challenge is an international robotics competition that aims to inspire science and technology leadership and innovation among youth worldwide. Each year, FIRST Global invites every country to send a team to design and build a robot to compete. Teams collaborate to complete challenges in a game designed around solving some of the world's biggest issues. This year's theme focuses on biodiversity loss and the ways we can work to prevent it. The competition aims to inspire global cooperation and understanding among young people as they use their skills and creativity to tackle real-world problems. FIRST Global Challenge Robotics Competition 2025 Representing Ireland, the team demonstrated exceptional creativity, technical skill, and collaboration throughout the competition. The 8th place finish, Ireland's highest ever ranking, was accompanied by 2 further awards, The Video storytelling award, and The Social Media award. This high finish allowed them to advance onto the play-off stage of the competition, where only teams of the highest quality compete. For each match, teams were grouped into alliances of 3 V 3 with alliances changing for every match. It was a test of technology and problem solving, communication across language barriers, and the ability to form new strategies each time. Although all countries started with the same kit, each resulting robot was unique - every country's robot had its own strengths and weaknesses and this required students to collaborate continuously and adapt their strategy as they were allied with country after country - in order to optimise their success in every match. "We're incredibly proud of Team Ireland's success on the world stage," said mentor Pawel Zielinski. "This achievement reflects the team's dedication, creativity, and collaboration over the past few months. It showcases the remarkable talent of young people in Ireland and offers great optimism for the future and what they can achieve." The competition not only highlighted Ireland's growing talent in robotics and engineering but also emphasized the importance of international collaboration and STEM education for solving future challenges. More info about FIRST Global and the World Robotics Competition: FIRST Global is a US charity founded by inventor and innovator Dean Kamen and it strives to convince the various national governments and organizations of the world to embrace STEM education, invest in FIRST programs, and support their young adults. The aim is to nurture cross-cultural communication and cooperation among high-school students around the world through STEM. In doing so students are empowered to collectively tackle the world's most pressing challenges and come up with solutions that improve quality of life for all. The FIRST Global Challenge is the mechanism for doing so. By bringing future STEM leaders together in an engaging and collaborative competition that drives home the importance, excitement, and applicability of STEM education, FIRST Global is using robots and technology challenges to build young adults that have the self-confidence, skill sets, imagination, courage, and vision to do important things. This year's theme challenged FIRST Global teams of students from around the world to collaboratively innovate to maximize biodiversity and protect the incredible variety of life that sustains us all. From rainforests to coral reefs, the health of us and our planet depends on it!

Wat is het Laatste Oordeel?De Wederkomst van Christus geeft Gods Zoon dit geschenk: de Stem namens God te horen verkondigen dat het onware onwaar is, en het ware nooit is veranderd. En dit is het oordeel waarmee waarneming eindigt. Eerst zie je een wereld die dit als waar heeft aanvaard, geprojecteerd vanuit een nu gecorrigeerde denkgeest. En met dit heilige zicht geeft waarneming een stille zegen en verdwijnt daarna; haar doel is bereikt en haar missie volbracht.Het eindoordeel over de wereld bevat geen veroordeling. Want het ziet de wereld als totaal vergeven, zonder zonde en volslagen nutteloos. Zonder oorzaak en nu zonder functie in de visie van Christus verglijdt ze eenvoudig in het niets. Daar werd ze geboren en daar eindigt ze ook. En alle figuren in de droom waarmee de wereld begon, verdwijnen met haar. Lichamen zijn nu onbruikbaar en zullen dan ook oplossen in het niets, want de Zoon van God is onbegrensd.Jij die geloofde dat het Laatste Oordeel van God de wereld samen met jou zou veroordelen tot de hel, aanvaard deze heilige waarheid: Gods Oordeel is het geschenk van de Correctie die Hij aan al jouw dwalingen heeft verleend, en die jou daarvan en van alle gevolgen die ze ooit maar scheen te hebben, bevrijdt. Bang zijn voor Gods verlossende genade is niets anders dan bang zijn voor totale bevrijding van alle lijden, voor de terugkeer tot vrede, zekerheid en geluk, en voor eenwording met jouw eigen Identiteit.Gods Eindoordeel is even genadig als iedere stap in het door Hemzelf vastgestelde plan om Zijn Zoon te zegenen en hem op te roepen terug te keren tot de eeuwige vrede die Hij met hem deelt. Wees niet bang voor liefde. Want zij alleen kan alle leed genezen, alle tranen wegwissen en de Zoon die God als de Zijne erkent zachtjes doen ontwaken uit zijn droom van pijn. Wees niet bang hiervoor. De verlossing vraagt jou haar welkom te heten. En de wereld wacht op jouw blije aanvaarding die haar bevrijden zal.Dit is Gods Eindoordeel: ‘Jij bent nog altijd Mijn heilige Zoon, voor immer onschuldig, eeuwig liefdevol en eeuwig geliefd, even onbegrensd als jouw Schepper, totaal onveranderlijk en voor altijd zuiver. Ontwaak daarom en keer terug tot Mij. Ik ben jouw Vader en jij bent Mijn Zoon.'LES 320Mijn Vader verleent mij alle macht.De Zoon van God is onbeperkt. Er zijn geen beperkingen aan zijn kracht, zijn vrede, zijn vreugde, of aan welke eigenschap ook die zijn Vader hem bij zijn schepping schonk. Wat hij samen met zijn Schepper en Verlosser wil, moet geschieden. Zijn heilige wil kan nooit verloochend worden, omdat zijn Vader Zijn Licht laat stralen over zijn denkgeest, waarvoor Hij alle macht en liefde op aarde als in de Hemel legt. Ik ben degene aan wie dit alles is gegeven. Ik ben degene in wie de kracht van mijn Vaders Wil verblijft.Uw Wil vermag alles in mij, en breidt zich vervolgens via mij tot heel de wereld uit. Uw Wil kent geen beperking. En aldus is alle macht gegeven aan Uw Zoon.Alle tekst- werk en handboek klassen van Een Cursus in Wonderen met Elbert nu te beluisteren en te bekijken op https://decursusmetelbert.nl

With new data from the National Academy of Sciences, it dismantles the myth that the U.S. lacks skilled STEM talent—showing that American students outperform their foreign counterparts across the board. What's really driving the visa surge, the commentary argues, isn't superior talent from abroad but cheaper, tightly controlled labor through what amounts to modern-day indentured servitude. From Fox News' sudden populist streak to real-world stories—like an American Amazon hire surrounded entirely by H-1B workers—this breakdown exposes how big business, politicians, and the visa system create a rigged market that sidelines U.S. graduates while pretending it's all about “innovation.

En dit is het oordeel waarmee waarneming eindigt. Eerst zie je een wereld die dit als waar heeft aanvaard, geprojecteerd vanuit een nu gecorrigeerde denkgeest. En met dit heilige zicht geeft waarneming een stille zegen en verdwijnt daarna; haar doel is bereikt en haar missie volbracht.Het eindoordeel over de wereld bevat geen veroordeling. Want het ziet de wereld als totaal vergeven, zonder zonde en volslagen nutteloos. Zonder oorzaak en nu zonder functie in de visie van Christus verglijdt ze eenvoudig in het niets. Daar werd ze geboren en daar eindigt ze ook. En alle figuren in de droom waarmee de wereld begon, verdwijnen met haar. Lichamen zijn nu onbruikbaar en zullen dan ook oplossen in het niets, want de Zoon van God is onbegrensd.Jij die geloofde dat het Laatste Oordeel van God de wereld samen met jou zou veroordelen tot de hel, aanvaard deze heilige waarheid: Gods Oordeel is het geschenk van de Correctie die Hij aan al jouw dwalingen heeft verleend, en die jou daarvan en van alle gevolgen die ze ooit maar scheen te hebben, bevrijdt. Bang zijn voor Gods verlossende genade is niets anders dan bang zijn voor totale bevrijding van alle lijden, voor de terugkeer tot vrede, zekerheid en geluk, en voor eenwording met jouw eigen Identiteit.Gods Eindoordeel is even genadig als iedere stap in het door Hemzelf vastgestelde plan om Zijn Zoon te zegenen en hem op te roepen terug te keren tot de eeuwige vrede die Hij met hem deelt. Wees niet bang voor liefde. Want zij alleen kan alle leed genezen, alle tranen wegwissen en de Zoon die God als de Zijne erkent zachtjes doen ontwaken uit zijn droom van pijn. Wees niet bang hiervoor. De verlossing vraagt jou haar welkom te heten. En de wereld wacht op jouw blije aanvaarding die haar bevrijden zal.Dit is Gods Eindoordeel: ‘Jij bent nog altijd Mijn heilige Zoon, voor immer onschuldig, eeuwig liefdevol en eeuwig geliefd, even onbegrensd als jouw Schepper, totaal onveranderlijk en voor altijd zuiver. Ontwaak daarom en keer terug tot Mij. Ik ben jouw Vader en jij bent Mijn Zoon.'LES 319Ik ben gekomen voor de verlossing van de wereld.Hier is een gedachte waaruit alle arrogantie weggenomen is en waarin alleen de waarheid overblijft. Want arrogantie is in strijd met de waarheid. Maar wanneer er geen arrogantie is, zal de waarheid onmiddellijk komen om de ruimte in te nemen die het ego door leugens onbezet liet. Alleen het ego kan beperkt zijn en daarom moet het doelen zoeken die begrensd en beperkend zijn. Het ego denkt dat wat de één wint, de totaliteit moet verliezen. En toch is het de Wil van God dat ik leer dat wat de één wint aan allen wordt gegeven.Vader, Uw Wil is totaal. En het doel dat daaruit voortvloeit deelt die totaliteit. Welk ander doel dan de verlossing van de wereld kon U mij hebben gegeven? En wat anders kon de Wil zijn die mijn Zelf met U deelt?Alle tekst- werk en handboek klassen van Een Cursus in Wonderen met Elbert nu te beluisteren en te bekijken op https://decursusmetelbert.nl
Tara breaks down the hidden truths behind the H-1B visa system and how it's impacting young Americans. With unemployment among 20- to 24-year-olds at 9.2%, entry-level white-collar STEM jobs are being filled by visa holders willing to work 10–50% below median U.S. pay—often for a guaranteed pathway to citizenship. Tara exposes how companies exploit this system, effectively chaining foreign workers to their desks for years while displacing talented American graduates. She also critiques recent political missteps, highlighting how these policies could alienate an entire generation of voters and empower the opposition.
Tara dives deep into the biggest threats to American workers and the next generation. From massive welfare fraud across multiple states to H-1B visa exploitation that displaces young Americans from STEM jobs, this episode exposes the hidden forces shaping the economy and politics. Tara discusses the consequences of illegal immigration, corporate manipulation, and government mismanagement on housing, wages, and employment, while highlighting how recent policy changes and enforcement efforts are reshaping the landscape. She also addresses political hoaxes and media manipulation, revealing how transparency and accountability are finally challenging the status quo.
Tara dives deep into the escalating crisis facing America's young generation — from crushing unemployment among recent graduates to the H-1B visa system undermining U.S. wages. With a staggering 9.2% unemployment rate for 20–24-year-olds and foreign workers taking entry-level STEM and white-collar positions at 10–50% lower pay, America's youth are being shut out of the jobs they earned. Tara explains how Trump's H-1B remarks and mixed messaging have created a political vacuum, with young voters flirting with socialism and radical alternatives. She also exposes how foreign student visas and radical campus movements threaten national security, showing why accountability, reform, and prioritizing American workers are more urgent than ever.

Right away, we explore the differences between teaching at a community college, a state university, and a private university. She notes that community college students often have a deeper desire to change their family's trajectory through education, whereas private university students can sometimes be more focused on negotiating requirements rather than a genuine thirst for learning.Karen explains how she works to help community college students, many of whom are first-generation, develop critical thinking and writing skills. She describes strategies like relating assignments to students' interests and professional goals and building trust to encourage them to take risks in their thinking and writing.The group discusses the perception that the humanities lack rigor compared to STEM fields, and how Karen navigates this bias with her STEM-focused colleagues. She emphasizes the need to demonstrate the structure and academic integrity within humanities disciplines.Karen shares how she has approached the use of AI tools by students in her writing courses. She focuses on building trust, scaffolding the writing process, and making the value of original thinking and writing transparent, rather than just penalizing AI-generated work.If you are a professor of English or another Humanities field, please reach out to us so we can have you on the podcast series!

Twee van de sterkste stemmen uit ons land in de Popcast. Gustaph en Lady Linn zijn bovendien goede vrienden met een brede muzieksmaak. Wat doen we met artiesten die ‘tuning' nodig hebben? Wie zijn de allerbeste zangers en zangeressen die we al eens op een podium zien? En ook; wat denken we over die nieuwe van Rosalia?
„Je gaat door de mand vallen,” zei het stemmetje in Nora Fischer's hoofd. „Het begon ermee dat ik bang was een bepaalde noot niet goed te raken,” vertelt ze. „En dan zegt dat stemmetje: zie je wel, het lukt je niet.” Het plezier in het zingen maakte plaats voor angst. Tegelijkertijd verloor haar zus zich in een depressie die haar het leven kostte. „Ik wilde weten: wie heeft ons dat plezier afgenomen?”„Ik kwam in een soort whirlpool terecht van vingerwijzen.” Ze zoekt de oorzaak bij haar Joodse afkomst, het calvinisme, het kapitalisme, de prestatiedruk, het patriarchaat, sociale media... Het hele systeem. En concludeert dat het anders moet: “Falen is cruciaal. Alles leren we door een keer te falen. Als je niet mag falen, kun je geen kunstenaar zijn.”Heeft u vragen, suggesties of ideeën over onze journalistiek?
