  • What happens on campus doesn’t stay on campus

    I’m a huge fan of Mark Oppenheimer’s previous podcasts — Unorthodox and Gatecrashers — so I jumped to listen to The Syllabus. Great first episode. And an important series, worth listening to even for those of us who aren’t in the world of education. Because universities aren’t like Las Vegas. What happens on campus doesn’t stay on campus.
