讀之前期望蠻大,好大一碗雞湯。中美大學相似之處太多瞭,我想日後我有孩子的話我會在高中給他看。
評分揭露瞭美國大學體製存在的諸多問題。對通識教育和以就業為導嚮的教育的討論深入到人生意義等宏大的話題。書中的另一個重點是透徹地分析當前體製對富人和中産階級越來越有利。遺憾地是這種現狀很難被改變。NBA可以靠選秀平衡各隊實力,但社會階層的調整實在是太睏難。

評分和作者2008年那篇the disadvantage of elite education相比,這本沒有那麼sharp,拖拖拉拉瞭好幾個禮拜纔讀完,中間溜齣去讀瞭幾本其他的書。有一些思考的地方,但是沒啥特彆的。
評分齣版當時就很轟動,想看瞭很久的書。Personal, incisive, thoughtful and bold. 和How to Raise an Adult 中對精英大學和學生,傢長的批判遙相呼應。美國高等教育的問題有很多書,看得越多,越可以對Elite大學祛魅。這本中尤其讓我覺得有意思的是從曆史變化角度的分析,對大學和教授的意義,和對幾種不同高等教育學校之間的比較。
William Deresiewicz was a professor at Yale until 2008. He is the author of the landmark essays “The Disadvantages of an Elite Education” and “Solitude and Leadership” and is a frequent speaker on campuses around the country. A contributing writer for The Nation and a contributing editor for The New Republic and The American Scholar, he is the author of A Jane Austen Education: How Six Novels Taught Me About Love, Friendship, and the Things That Really Matter.
A groundbreaking manifesto for people searching for the kind of insight on leading, thinking, and living that elite schools should be—but aren’t—providing.
As a professor at Yale, Bill Deresiewicz saw something that troubled him deeply. His students, some of the nation’s brightest minds, were adrift when it came to the big questions: how to think critically and creatively, and how to find a sense of purpose.
Excellent Sheep takes a sharp look at the high-pressure conveyor belt that begins with parents and counselors who demand perfect grades and culminates in the skewed applications Deresiewicz saw firsthand as a member of Yale’s admissions committee. As schools shift focus from the humanities to "practical" subjects like economics and computer science, students are losing the ability to think in innovative ways. Deresiewicz explains how college should be a time for self-discovery, when students can establish their own values and measures of success, so they can forge their own path. He addresses parents, students, educators, and anyone who's interested in the direction of American society, featuring quotes from real students and graduates he has corresponded with over the years, candidly exposing where the system is broken and clearly presenting solutions.
2014年七月,前耶鲁大学教授威廉·德雷谢维奇(William Deresiewicz)在《新共和》上撰文“别送你的孩子上常青藤:美国的顶尖学府把你的孩子变成僵尸”,引起轰动。此文网络版据称是《新共和》杂志有史以来点击率最高的文章。此文也在美国名校中引起了一系列的反思和反驳。 此...
評分今年六月,我和无数中国大学生一起迈入了毕业季。 作为一名不知名211大学的新闻专业的女生,从去年的9月开始,奔波于沈阳(学校所在地)的各个校园招聘会和面试地点之间,辗转在奔赴北上广的飞机与火车上。 每一轮面试后,我都以每两分钟一次的频率查看手机短信和邮件,等着...
