Polymaths at the London Interdisciplinary School plan to teach universities a thing or two

From The Times: “Stroll up Whitechapel Road in east London, past Jack the Chipper and Hichki Mumbai Kitchen, and you could easily miss the most radical new university to open in decades. The first hand-selected students started this week at an incubator for 21st-century polymaths — London Interdisciplinary School (LIS). They beat intense competition for a place on its inaugural course: a bachelor of arts and sciences in real-world problems.”
