"An Aptitude for Aptitude"

Ever feel like college is pointless? Like you're regurgitating a bunch of useless stuff and not actually developing any higher brainpower. Or that students are given the wrong incentives and the social culture can overshadow the academic culture?

Read "Lost in the Meritocracy" in The Atlantic and you'll feel the same way.  You'll just wish that you're as good as the author is at taking standardized tests.

Good thing spring break is almost here.
