Right Ideas: Reform Ideas Anathema with Amy Wax

National Association of Scholars

In this episode of the Right Ideas podcast, Professor Amy Wax argues for a 'Radical Reactionary' approach to higher education reform, arguing for a decrease in foreign students, college administrators, and race-based policymaking. Along the way, she provides a sobering look at the current lack of academic freedom in our institutions of higher education (particularly our law schools) and potential sources of renewal.

This is the first episode of Right Ideas moderated by the new host of the podcast, Louis Galarowicz.

Amy Wax is the Robert Mundheim Professor of Law at the University of Pennsylvania Carey Law School and a former member of the National Association of Scholars Board of Directors.
