I confess I am completely sold. It just goes to show what an education can be if very rigorously worked through. I was immensely lucky in my bachelors (King's London) but this is also very thorough stuff - right down to the text of the film itself; impressive and a contrast to the UK where we specialise so very early.
Call them square, I'd say a lack of critical thought has gotten this country (the USA) to where it is today. Having an education such as this is invaluable, and if it means being square, then at least they are squares who can openly and freely think through the nonsense many of those who think they're "cool" have fallen for.
Once upon a time I was a Johnny, then a Marine, now an older person who looks back fondly and with appreciation for what I learned in the places shown in this video.
The best thing about St. John's is that it makes perfect sense to go from talking about Lucretius to Wordsworth to Rousseau...although i dearly hope my senior examination doesn't end up on youtube!!!!

3:40. Nothing like a good drag of nicotine for an oral examination pick-me-up.

What a fine! I'm in the chorus scene....in red. So good to see familiar faces, and
Klein's free hand skills.

I think my class as pretty OK but it is hard to be sure-I was always kinda sleepy when in chorus.
