In her new book, DIY U: Edupunks, Edupreneurs, and the Coming Transformation of Higher Education, Anya Kamenetz argues that the traditional ideal of a college education does not work for many people and that it needs to change radically. She outlines a plan on how that might happen and she'll be discussing her ideas this Sunday at the Clark County Library on East Flamingo Road. We talk with her about her ideas for education reform.
