This month’s episode of “Gentle Folk” features a discussion on leisure and learning.  Our guest is Dr. Erin Uminn, Principal of the School of Rhetoric, who earned a PhD in education, and whose dissertation was an extended treatment of what the Greeks called “schole” (pronounced SKO-lay).  If that word looks somewhat familiar, it should; it’s the word from which we get “school,” but its original meaning had more to do with what we might call leisure.  In this podcast, Dr. Uminn provides a fascinating discussion of this concept and its implications for the students and faculty alike.
