The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation would do well to understand why its founder is a college drop out.
We participated recently in a great high level meeting on education sponsored by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. The foundation is to be commended for its efforts on behalf of improving education.
But the foundation would do well to understand why its founder is a college drop out.
Bill Gates, while certainly smart if not brilliant, did not drop out of college because he was so smart he did not need a college degree, as academics now belatedly claim.
The real reason is the same reason that 2 million other smart boys are denied college access and degrees every year: schools grade based on behavior, not on learning and knowledge. All educational reform efforts will be futile until society eliminates gender bias against males and starts to grade based on learning and knowledge. Then even Bill Gates could graduate from college.
Pretty good post. I just stumbled upon your blog and wanted to say that I have really enjoyed reading your blog posts. Any way I will be subscribing to your feed and I hope you post again soon.

Bill Gates is a walking, talking inspiration. Not that I'm taking education for granted, it's just that we have the power to succeed, regardless of any obstacle that may come our way. =)

I love to read and learn more on various topics, but this one topic that you wrote recently has made me kind of sad, because I did not expect this kind of information from your end. Probably it happened by mistake. I know you are a great writer and wish to see many more wonderful write-ups from your end. Cheers!!!

This caught my eye because I also find it interesting that the most
widely-published professors and researchers are not the ones teaching
students at their universities, almost out of necessity-- if you're
spending so much time in the laboratory or the library, you can't
teach a class full of undergrads at the same time.
