I believe we are about to experience a massive renaissance in the humanities, inside and outside of universities—but especially outside of them.
The world outside of the classroom is a target-rich environment for learning, now more than ever. But students must be trained to see it, in all of its depth and layers, and to engage with it so that it’s ultimately fruitful for their human formation and doesn’t simply flow over their faces like lukewarm water, with no refreshment and invigoration at all.
