College Before College (Part 8): Not Faster—Fuller

Curiosity isn’t disappearing from higher education—it’s being squeezed by cost, structure, and the pressure to get it right the first time. But what if the very tools designed to accelerate students could instead give that curiosity room to breathe?
Corey Alderdice, a national voice on talent and transformation, explores how the argument that colleges have stopped rewarding curiosity intersects with the rise of early college experiences like Advanced Placement, dual enrollment, and concurrent credit. Rather than treating accumulated credits as a fast track to graduation, this episode reframes them as a form of academic margin—space that allows students to double major, study abroad, pursue internships, and explore disciplines without the constant pressure of efficiency.
At the center of the conversation is a fundamental question: are we designing systems that push students to finish faster, or ones that allow them to experience more?
Editor's Note: This is an encore presentation of an episode released earlier this season that fits alongside the bigger discussions of early college experiences.
