Heirarchy: Language, Mathematics, Humanities, The Arts (Art, Music, Drama, Dance)
Education services the needs of the industrial revoltuion which is a profound mistake as we face a cultural revolution in the information age. We can no longer allow academic ability to drive our view of intelligence, created in the university models image. The consequence is brilliant people think they are not because thier intelligence was not valued and worse stigmatized.

Intelligence
1. Diverse
2. Dynamic - Interactive, Creativity (Original ideas of value)
3. Distinct - (CATS (Move to think))
