About this listen

Join Dr. Christopher Perrin for lively explorations of the marvelous, traditional idea of schole and why it's the very heart of school. We may not all be able to gather in an actual coffee shop (you know, one with large wooden tables and bookshelves and delicious espresso), but we can do our best to talk about the kinds of things we'd talk about if we could!
