In Defense of Educational Administrators

By TylerR on Thu, 06/08/17
Society & Culture
Higher Education

Is it any surprise that educational administrators reflect this in their approach to today’s student protests?

It seems as if Trueman is in effect not defending administrators at all, but is rather accusing them of completely ignoring the true purpose of education.

Trueman likes witty and understated humor - he’s British.

Tyler is a pastor in Olympia, WA and works in State government.
