Jay Van Bavel, Ph.D.
Award-winning Scientist, Author, and Teacher
The next generation is poised to face a unique set of challenges. They will have more information at their fingertips than any time in human history, but sorting through all the false and misleading information will be one of the most fundamental skill sets necessary for success in life(—including maintaining their own physical and mental health). As such, I think a good education in the science and art of decision-making is absolutely essential to prepare the next generation to flourish as individuals and maintain a peaceful and vibrant society.
