I almost went to St Johns in Sante Fe back in the 80s. I loved the campus and the vibe. It’s actually one of my life’s regrets.

I just wasn’t confident enough that I could handle 4 years of primary sources after my good but very mainstream high school education.

It also saddens me that St Johns hasn’t evolved to include work outside of the Western cannon.

But I was never under the impression that St Johns was going to teach me how to use computer software.
