In games there's massive choice. You get to engage in a kind of rich aesthetic personal decision. I think when large scale systems in the world become like games, like GPA, there aren't alternatives or ways to step back. And so you can just get sucked into this game. It's systemic. There are two problems. One is that there's this pervasive instrumentality. Every student is stuck with GDP as something that employers will look at. So that's pervasive. The other problem is if you approach your entire educational life where the only goal is GPA and you don't think about anything else, then you're thinning out a much richer activity.
