- Ayn Rand at Columbia University -- part 7: Issues in Education
Course playlist: • Ayn Rand at Columbia U...
In this 1964 radio interview, Ayn Rand gives her views on education, including the causes of its decline and the principles that should guide rational educators. Rand discusses such issues as the essential purpose of education, the “flight from reason” caused by philosophers such as Kant, the links between altruism and irrationalism in education, the necessity of guiding children toward intellectual independence, the evils of dogma and indoctrination, the difference between fact and interpretation, some essentials of rational curriculum, the impropriety of forced racial segregation and integration, the parental “responsibility and privilege” to guide their children’s education, and the chaos of college education featuring a “different epistemology in every classroom.”

Such a beautiful and powerful mind.
This is so true, the things I did outside of school did SO much more to develop my thinking abilities than anything I ever learnt in school. The amount of people with degrees that are considered 'smart' by society but actually have incredibly bad critical thinking skills is staggering.
Teachers should transcribe this entire talk and ask serious questions about their own districts, schools, and classrooms.
Thankyou Ayn Rand for so much. You opened my mind to philosophy, reality, objectivity, reason, self worth, everything...I can’t ever thank you so much..you gave me my life.
Right!! She gave me my life.
Same here!
Had an enlightment by her teachings and felt like I left the cave!
Gonna take these lessons in my education system that I'm working on👌
Thank you, Miss Rand!🤝
@@booni5114 *She opened your eyes
I have listened to this interview probably 100 times over the last 10 years. It is like she is telling my brain what it always wanted to tell me, but was unable to.
The same situation... when I met these ideas and her logic for the first time, I thought that I was reading myself, only more sophisticated.
Exactly my observation upon reading the first few pages of The Fountainhead. In my consequent journey, exploring the work of AR, the same feeling recurred again and again.
@@TyyylerDurden Another deluded sheep speaks out. Cannot even come up with a unique handle; what's to say novel thinking.
@@benvanrensburg4261 You mean: again, and again, and again, and again,and again,and again,and again,and again,and again,and again,and again,and again,and again,and again,and again,and again.
@@fromthepeanutgallery1084 Yes.
Ayn was brilliant.
"Understanding is not part of today's basic premises."
She predicted the future failure of education. What a wonderful mind and I thank you for showing me the way Ayn Rand.
Where was that tape when I was a student?! How much time I could have spared with those advices?!
😢 I found Ayn Rand's books just before I was about to land in college, but I was actually waiting since my early school days for it to make sense to me.
Looking back to those years, now that I'm through with 'education', l feel that I was fortunate to discover and later explore her ideas.
This broadcast is beautiful.
Astonishing. Wish I had listened to this a long time ago when I was subjected to the most inhumane, institutional bullying at university and emotional abuse.
Everything that comes from this woman somehow makes perfect sense.
Aged like a fine wine!
Thank you for the uploads, keep them coming.
Aantekeningen over Educatie:
Doel:
1. Bijbrengen van een methode om te leven (rationaliteit als het menselijk middel van bestaan)
2. Bijbrengen van basale kennis om te leven
I love her so much❤️
Truth doesn’t change over time.
Beliefs do. Society holds some beliefs as truths until they are dismantled.
Correction. Facts don't change.
18:00 19:48 powerful stuff
Ayn Rand says that the education system is designed "almost, as if it were, on purpose" to paralyze man's mind. Then she utterly neglects to mention that that's only possible because government has a monopoly on education. It's maddening how virtually everyone misses this single important point: that the government monopoly on education must end.
She writes all about that in her writings. She knows it and explains it
It's not like private education would eliminate the problem though. It is a necessary, but not a sufficient condition for a proper educational system.
Exactly
@@Thindorama // Private education has to, or it will perish.
She recognizes this and it's covered in some of her essays in the book Philosophy: Who Needs It.
Privatisation of schools will not fix the underlying philosophy in the cultural overnight, of course, but it's a crucial step before we see further change.
all teachers must be experts in Logical Thought
Incredible thinker
Take that and apply to what's happening in north America university teachings the students of the new norm of socialism as a better ways for society to live today's. It make me sick of the young mindset.
She talks about university education paralyzing a man's mind, couldn't be more apparent than today. At some point it's going to totally break down, it has nowhere else to go.
The function of a human parent, is to teach the child how to survive, when the parent is no longer there. So many people abdicate that responsibility today, that is one of the causal agents of the problems of our society today.
Thank you
Incredibly moving.....Ayn Rand has more wisdom than anyone I have ever heard, when it comes to describing Utopia.....the absolutely essential relationship between teacher and student. The truth never changes...despite the various and sundry interpretations of collegiates, or ecclesiastics for that matter. Without the truth, transmitted, the student, undoubtedly, goes awry. I finally see how Utopia arises out of a communist ideology!!!! Hallelujah!
Ernest Boyer, E.D. Hirsch, Alan Bloom, etc
Great thinkers about education.
YES AND BUSSING BLEW MY MIND
Thanks be to Ayn Rand
Amazing tools of thought for anyone interested
Fascinating to learn Kant wanted to destroy reason in order to promote altruism.
Why is it impossible for me to find a transcript of this? What is going on?
Please provide a link to the transcript I would really appreciate it.
18:38 being this was from 1964, was she talking about the civil rights bill of 1964 ?
Did they take away transcripts for all videos or can I just not find it? Or did they take away transcripts for discriminatory purposes?
Wow, she was an exceptional woman
Funny that only in my 40s i am hearing of Ayn Rand
At 7:30, who is the other philosopher she characterizes as minor, alongside Marx?
Albert Camus
Ayn Rand Institute thank you!
His philosophy sounds absurdly familiar (heh heh). As though some prominent figure just recently espoused it.
@@Krisk236 may I know who that 'prominent figure' is?
lokesh loki I honestly have no idea who I was talking about.
Who came here after watching rgv interview?
First words to a new class. Never believe your teacher. They need to convince you that they are correct.
Then encourage learners to disagree with what you (the teacher) know are inherently the truth.
Ryans stance on segregation would have not worked. Bayonets had to be used to end segregation.
he (his); a reference to the abstract human being, nothing more than that
I remember stating the concept she presented regarding racist business owners to a conservative Republican (which I thought I was at the time) at the time of the gay wedding cake argument. He vehemently disagreed with me. I had only read a restaurant at the time, and I didn’t realize that her philosophy was coming out of my mouth.
I think the problem was that I believed the words republicans preached, but didn’t see that they NEVER practice it. It’s a mental illness, the worship of the state. I’m pretty sure it was intentionally designed that way. It’s easier to control them that way.
Why didn’t MY switch get flipped? The pretending I love liberty, yet loving authoritarian practices. Why haven’t I been conditioned to do that, but THEY did? Is it divergence of thought process? Or is it that they completely lack identity and desire only to follow follow follow, repeat repeat repeat?
I cant believe how terribly relevant her teachings are to today, and i fear we are headed to a complete and total socialist society in which america will inevitably fail
..and timely some 64 years later ..
*54 years
True education is for the few, that can understand it. Not masses of sheep. The sheep pay money, but never get it. If it were, everyone would be an Ayn Rand, Elon Musk, Picasso, TE Lawrence. It's not the case. Around 1% of the population has an IQ of 140. Hers was around 160. Statistics show this is one person out of about 32,000
much philosophy is engaged in paralyzing the ability of humans to develop Logical, Critical Thinking skills
Now, this is a lie, clearly, altruism can be rationally justified and that is not even difficult. It's rather easy. But I agree with her on some points.
14:00
16:40
23:50 I fell in love with her.
You might want to look into the difference between her definitions of 'altruism' and 'benevolence'. There's a program on this channel which directly addresses the topic. To Ms Rand, altruism is a subordination of individual rights and freedoms to collective ones, and implies compelled sacrifice rather than generosity.
How is self sacrifice, giving up values, rational? It would be like earning a living and throwing your income in the street as soon as you get paid, rather than buying food, shelter, and other life sustaining/enhancing values. Altruism leads to death.
SHE MISSED THE MARK ON INTEGRATION.
@george george what other integration is there if it isnt a FEDERAL MANDATED LAW? that makes sure small po dunk towns ignore the constitution without consequences?
@george george First of all, calm down. Second of all, interesting words that I will have to chew on for a bit and look up all of this.. thanks!
@george george You're thinking in very racist terms.
Watch this to maybe begin to get it:
