Oh jeez! I'm admittedly an SFI super-fan, but had never heard of CoA! They seem like a neat little feeder institution. I used to camp there as a kid, so the area is very familiar to me.

Thanks so so much! I feel like some kid in my "future sphere of influence" -- whatever that might be -- could very well end up there, so your comment feels impactful.

No problem! I had the same reaction when I found out about College of the Atlantic. I was like, I should quit my job and go study there. Haha. I actually found out about them via Complexity Explorer, the Santa Fe Institute's online MOOC platform, by looking up David Feldman, who teaches a course on Complexity Explorer and is a professor at College of the Atlantic.

College of the Atlantic actually has a lot of neat videos on YouTube, and below is a tour of the campus by the college president.
