Nostalgia Trap - Episode 316: The Life of the Grind w/ Ryan Boyd

Ryan Boyd teaches in the Writing Program at the University of Southern California. His website collects much of his excellent writing, including a number of pieces on pedagogy and the state of higher education that we discuss in this episode. From crippling student loans and shitty mask policies to racist administrations and right-wing censorship, Ryan helps us explore what’s wrong, what can be done about it, and why our beleaguered colleges and universities are such critical battlegrounds for the future.
