Graff Piece

Graff's article was mainly about academia. Unlike many other authors and journalists, he did not praise academia but he criticized it. "My arguement in this book, however is that academia reinforces cluelessness by making it's ideas, problems, and ways of thinking look more opaque, narrowly specialized, and beyond normal learning capacities than they are or need to be." To me, this was a very interesting opinion about academia. I had never seen academia through this perspective and it was interesting to see how Graff questions academia's purpose.
