Episode 220 - Siva Kumari

http://www.crushpodcast.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/Siva-Kumari.mp3  The International Baccalaureate, or IB, is the hardest and most thorough preparation for college out there today. Not only is it out there, but it’s really out there as a global curriculum in almost 150 countries, and it’s growing. Dr. Siva Kumari is the leader of this complex and fascinating entity, and she is also an utter delight. She spoke to me via Skype from The Hague…which is not a bad place to have an office.  Here is the study I reference in this episode, demonstrating that the IB is doing great work in low-income communities.
