A Thomas Jefferson Education


This book, by Oliver DeMille is a must read. The leadership education he describes in this book is one that many parents are seeking for their children. These ideas can be implemented with many other "brands" of education. The 7 key elements to this are:
  1. Classics not Textbooks
  2. Mentors not Professors
  3. Inspire not Require
  4. Quality not Conformity
  5. Structure Time not Content
  6. Simplicity not Complexity
  7. You not Them
