@suaveyobi I definitely agree. The entire video was more or less a giant circle jerk for everyone in attendance. Nothing of substance was said, and no practical theories were discussed. The worst part of this is that it is sponsored by University of Phoenix, an institution known to have predatory lending pratices.

GOOD is circling the drain, product placement and college advertising now? Austin innovators is the worst culprit. Nothing is being said here and I dont feel inspired by snippets of how 'we ought to ask ourselves the right questions of what needs to get done' *unsubscribed*

Well I had mixed opinions of this video being a high school student

I hate being looked upon as a general "category" as highschoolers because every single highschooler is different. You shouldn't make school days longer because we have enough stress as it is but we do need better teachers so idk how I feel yet

unsubscripted for generally the same reasons as below and other things about good which has been less informative lately.

this video was eh, but I loved the movie "waiting for superman" :) Nice to see the director. and to everyone else: yeah they're getting sponsors. I guess you guys don't realize that everything needs to be funded, money doesn't come from no where. and I'm quite gld that there are companies wanting to get behind some idea of GOOD as I always really enjoy these videos.

Union retard talk.

More school time doesn't lead to better grades or higher education, sorry, it only leads to higher payoffs for the fatcats.

Empty and uninspiring ... this is really bad stuff. I'll give them one more chance though. Just one.
