Short Reads Social #13: "Are we post-education?" (Sept 15th)

Short-Read Socials are back! Come meet with like-minded and unlikeminded people to talk about the topic of the month. This time, we're thinking about education. Are students doomed to be illiterate in the age of AI? Has education become nothing but a business? Is higher education 'worth it' anymore?

How does it work?

• The event is casual. You can talk to anyone there with or without our prompt sheets, either about the month's topic or about whatever you want.
• Open philosophical discussion, including for controversial topics, is welcome but be respectful :)
• If you've read/watched/heard anything related to the topic of the month, feel free to bring it in! Not necessarily physically, but you can if you want...
• If not, here are some thought-provoking reads to start you off (read as many or as few as you want):
• Everyone is cheating their way through college (paywall free version here)
• The great university con: how the British degree lost its value
• The Age of Reading is Over
• Your Review: School
• Feel free to post other recommendations (blogs, movies, tv episodes, video essays, etc.) in the comments!
