The tables just about communicate for themselves. The highest finisher in Curriculum, Instruction, and Administration was Jo Boaler; in Economics, Emily Oster; in Authorities and Coverage, Paul Peterson; in Psychology, Angela Duckworth (Full disclosure: Angela Duckworth blogs for Schooling Week); and, in Sociology, Pedro Noguera (Full disclosure: Noguera and I co-authored A Search for Frequent Floor in 2021 and simply wrapped up our “Frequent Floor” podcast this fall).
Past the disciplinary breakdowns, I additionally need to give a particular nod to junior college who made the record. Harvard’s Anthony Jack topped the junior college chart this yr, coming in 142nd total. The opposite junior college to make the Edu-Scholar 200 had been Harvard’s Jarvis Givens, at 172, College of Arkansas’ Jonathan Wai, at 181, Brown’s Jonathan Collins, at 194, UT Austin’s Denisa Gandara, at 195, and Harvard’s Bianca Baldridge, at 198. On condition that the train, by design, favors students who’ve constructed our bodies of labor and had a sustained influence, these six are deserving of specific discover.
Properly, that wraps up the 2023 Edu-Scholar Rankings. We’ll do that all once more subsequent yr, identical time, identical place. Subsequent week, we’ll return to our frequently scheduled programming.
