90 years after Harvard adopted the SAT, it has become test-optional in the name of DIE. FIRE also ranked it as the worst university for free speech. Ken Griffin's recent $300 million donation to Harvard is a case study in conventional philanthropy - he could have practiced courageous dissident philanthropy by supporting UATX instead ;)

Aristoi is a great word. It's time to bring back noblesse oblige as well. Ameritocracy?

A useful call to action. If we have statesmen like Jefferson and Adams at present, it is not obvious. I think we should institute term limits to eliminate "career" legislators. This could bring many benefits, not least being making the elderly politicos go back home after, say, 12 years in DC. (Two senate terms, six house terms.) Fresh ideas, new energy.
