Education that Builds a Life, Not Just A Living with Andrew Chambers | Excel College

"Learn to build a life, not just a living" is the slogan of Excel College in North Carolina, a unique higher education experience that equips students with skills for the whole of life, including their careers, relationships, and faith. In this conversation, Robert speaks with Andrew Chambers, Head of Campus Life at Excel. Andrew discusses Excel's unique philosophy and approach to higher education, emphasizing the two phases the college's students work through—the Core and the Practicum. In addition, Andrew describes the family-style campus environment at Excel, why companies are seeking liberal arts students, how Excel students can graduate with bachelor's degrees in just two and a half years, and much more. Afterward, in this episode's "Current Events Discussion," Robert uses the classical tools of learning to understand the Canadian wildfires and, in the "Classical Crypto" segment, debunks two popular myths about crypto: that it has no use cases and is untraceable.
