If important changes are to take place, discussions in the workplace must be greatly enriched. An active discussion among nonbusiness school academics and corporate members with each willing to give up part of their language and thinking routines can help. This is not just a case of making academics think and talk more clearly and practically. Discussion among business leaders are as often reduced to short choppy expressions of empty slogans as academic talk is to complex convoluted displays. The frustration of style differences must give way to the pursuit of mutual insight. (Stanley Deetz, 1995)

“Learn, or we will hurt you” is a prevailing gospel in the nation’s primary, middle, and high schools, a longtime educator said during a panel discussion Wednesday, and it’s one that needs to change. “Think about all the ways we have devised to hurt people who don’t learn,” complained Roland Barth, a former Harvard Graduate School of Education (HGSE) faculty member, who described measures like detention of students and the threats against educators who could lose their credentials if they fail to comply with certification demands. Barth, the founder of HGSE’s The Principals’ Center , described coming across a group of high school students who were nearing graduation. The students, gathered around a burning 55-gallon barrel on the campus, were joyfully tossing their books and notes into the flames.

Architect Sir David Chipperfield discussed the challenge of juggling modern architecture, historical buildings and public opinion in a talk at the Yale School of Architecture Thursday night. Chipperfield, a renowned British architect and Norman R. Foster visiting professor, spoke in detail about the difficulties he has encountered in trying to reconcile his own modern aesthetic with the traditional style of architecture the public often expects.
