The current recession is making the situation worse, but there is no guarantee that higher education will improve with the economy.

Sunstein, a professor at Harvard Law School, is the coauthor, along with economist Richard Thaler, of Nudge about the subtle ways that government can push (or nudge) people into making better decisions. For the latest episode of the UtneCast, I sat down with Cass Sunstein to talk about the benefits and dangers of using nudges in government and business. And since Sunstein is also an informal advisor to presidential candidate Barack Obama, I asked him about the ways in which both candidates are nudging voters. tag:odeo.com,2008-08-06,23152696 Wed, 06 Aug 2008 15:53:26 -0700 no UtneCast podcast, Uncategorized, Politics, Cass Sunstein http://odeo.com/episodes/23113070-UtneCast-A-Conversation-with-Del-McCoury Download Interview with Del McCoury Moneyland, the new album by bluegrass legend Del McCoury, is a scathing indictment of the rampant corruption and greed in America today.

Jordan uses large-scale digital images to bring to life dry statistics about things like the environment, public health, and war. One image, for example, stands 16 feet tall and 32 feet wide, and depicts 9 million ABC blocks, representing the number of American children without health insurance. Jordan also discusses the recent Storyfield Conference, a gathering of storytellers from various disciplines, exploring how to change the dominant narrative in our culture–the “story field”–from competition, exploitation and destruction to something more life-affirming. And this week, contributing editor Joe Hart reviews the film You’re Gonna Miss Me , about legendary rock-n-roll pioneer Roky Erickson. Episode sponsor:...
