This past week, another major story in the world of education came from Oklahoma, where Ryan Walters is being demonized by the mainstream media for the termination of more than 80 employees from the Sooner State’s Department of Education.
Because centralized education, at its core, is really about the paradigm of Common Core. This type of top-down philosophy of education is an insult to academic freedom. It imposes mediocrity on schools and teachers rather than releasing them to do what they’ve been trained to do best.
The goal of every good school should be the exact opposite. The best education is about pursuing truth, not the propagation of whatever agenda the professional class thinks is good for us. Students are rewarded more for parroting what is politically correct and popping off with their predictable ad hominem attacks and ad populum fallacies than they are for having the confidence and capacity to be intellectually honest.
