[Hatinggabi IV] Social pressure: Dream Deep or Dream High?
from The Midnight Exchange with Veds and Jericho · host Jericho Padilla and Veds Kali
In a society that overrates worldly achievements and conventional means of attaining success, where do non-traditional learners situate themselves in what seems to be the prevailing realm of rewards and punishments, carrots and sticks? Up to what point can they endure to suffer from societal pressures for not performing on or above par with the generally accepted standards of accomplishment, victory, and glory? Are these valid excuses to circumvent traditional norms and resort to frauding people all for the sake of the ephemeral—the temporary happiness that we can get from this deception? In this episode, join us as we unpack the story of Kathleen Poblete, Rodj Tabo, Diederik Stapel, and Gilderoy Lockhart and zero in on the importance of trusting the gradual process of learning and why building a healthy academic culture matters.
