Ravi and Rikki start this special Back to School episode by discussing a new series from The New York Times asking authors a simple yet expansive question: What Is School For? Then the hosts turn to the “Nation’s Report Card,” a bleak look at the extent and severity of COVID learning losses. FIRE is out with its annual college free speech rankings; Rikki and Ravi sift through the data and draw their conclusions. And finally, we’ll check back in on an Arizona mom who’s become a cause célèbre for free range parenting advocates.
