Breaking the Paper Belt: Education's Radical Reimagining
What if the next Einstein is a teenager in Nebraska who should skip Harvard altogether? This provocative question sits at the heart of Michael Gibson's revolutionary thesis. After helping launch Peter Thiel's controversial fellowship that pays students $100,000 to drop out of college, Gibson went on to co-found 1517 Fund, backing college dropouts whose companies are now collectively worth over $10 billion. Meanwhile, elite universities hoard $800 billion in endowments while increasingly functioning as modern monasteries-preserving knowledge rather than creating it. The traditional path through prestigious institutions might actually be stifling our most brilliant minds.
