“How Ivy League Admissions Broke America:” David Brooks Explains

Season 2024 Episode 7102 | 17m 59s

The U.S. election has highlighted a general distrust in American institutions. Many working-class voters opted to vote Republican due in part to a belief that the Democrats are the party of the educated elite. For The Atlantic's December cover story, contributing writer David Brooks argues that the nation's top schools are trapped in an outdated system of meritocracy that needs to be redefined.
