"We have to honor tradition...but we don't have to follow it."

Dr. Daniel Kang just recently received teacher of the year for GFU graduate programs and after listening to this episode it is pretty clear why this is the case.

Not everyone is ready to hear some of these hard truths regarding what needs change in academia. But at the end of the day, it is constructive, and we are working on trying to be a little bit better and a little less wrong each day.

Hopefully we can use podcasts like these to stir up discussion amongst academics and students, so we can all work together and strive towards a better tomorrow. Please reach out if you are an Academic that wants to learn more or get involved!

In the meantime, sit back and enjoy this episode. Dr. Kang has tremendous wisdom to share, how he goes about structuring his curriculum while balancing CAPTE requirements, and a wonderful vision for what Academia can look like.
