"When you go on a flight deck of an aircraft carrier ... and every one of those young 19-year-olds are wearing all their equipment and their helmets ... you know what you see? They are all exactly the same."

The world needs a new operating system; our next gen leaders do, too. I graduated high school struck more by what I hadn’t learned than what I had. I’d been a good student — heads down, checking boxes, collecting gold stars — but I was exhausted from the treadmill, disillusioned by classroom learning, and hungry to learn what school wouldn’t (and couldn’t) teach me. Life has changed dramatically in the decades since I graduated — but our approach to school hasn’t. ✔ High school is still a high-stakes race to get into college. ✔ We still teach to tests, but now AI can pass them in seconds. ✔ We still require students to choose a major, before they’ve found their mission. Our kids are disillusioned, distracted, and expected to navigate a new world with an education designed for a world that no longer exists. School still teaches kids to follow the leader. What if, instead, we taught them to fly? Today, alongside my co-founder Chalon Bridges and a growing roster of world-class Advisors, I’m thrilled to announce the launch of The Flight School -- a for-purpose (aka non-profit) venture creating an accessible, aspirational, and rebellious rite of passage for our next-generation leaders. Combining proven models with pioneering technologies, The Flight School is re-inventing the “gap year”, to ensure young adults everywhere find their people, their purpose and their power to drive change. If you believe in an education higher than higher ed, this is your invitation. It’s time to take flight. Will you join us? #TakingFlight #LearningOnPurpose

I am both a lifelong learner and a champion of people who take on the journey of continued learning and development. This story of a fellow New Yorker's triumph over the unknown and self-value is inspiring. The article highlights the transformative power of education for veterans, showing how universities can pave the way for a new sense of purpose and direction. It's a good read.

"The history of all hitherto existing society is the history of class struggles. Freeman and slave, patrician and plebeian, lord and serf, guild-master and journeyman, in a word, oppressor and oppressed, stood in constant opposition to one another, carried on an uninterrupted, now hidden, now open fight, a fight that each time ended, either in a revolutionary reconstitution of society at large, or in the common ruin of the contending classes. In the earlier epochs of history, we find almost everywhere a complicated arrangement of society into various orders, a manifold gradation of social rank. In ancient Rome we have patricians, knights, plebeians, slaves; in the Middle Ages, feudal lords, vassals, guild-masters, journeymen, apprentices, serfs; in almost all of these classes, again, subordinate gradations. The modern bourgeois society that has sprouted from the ruins of feudal society has not done away with class antagonisms. It has but established new classes, new conditions of oppression, new forms of struggle in place of the old ones. Our epoch, the epoch of the bourgeoisie, possesses, however, this distinct feature: it has simplified class antagonisms. Society as a whole is more and more splitting up into two great hostile camps, into two great classes directly facing each other: Bourgeoisie and Proletariat". Karl Marx
