How Latin Can Help Develop Future Leaders with Strong Morals
AI is accelerating everything: information, influence, and decision-making. But speed does not equal wisdom. Efficiency does not produce character.
What concerns me most is not whether children will be competent in the future—they will. What concerns me is whether they will have the discernment to pause, the courage to question, and the moral clarity to choose rightly when powerful tools present convincing but unexamined answers.
That is why my interest in education—especially in the earliest years—has deepened rather than diminished in the Age of AI.
Abraham Lincoln Set Off an Education Revolution in 1862 with the Land Grant Act.
In 1862, in the midst of the Civil War, President Abraham Lincoln signed the Morrill Act and set off an education revolution. The Act established land-grant colleges across the country, democratizing higher education and equipping generations of Americans with the skills to meet the challenges of industrialization. That bold move helped transform the United States into the world’s economic powerhouse.
Today, we face a technological revolution of similar magnitude: Artificial Intelligence. Will we meet this challenge with the same boldness Lincoln displayed in 1862?
