With the goal of “[teaching] students how to think critically about public policy formulation and its results,” the Hoover Institution is gathering students and recent graduates at Stanford University this month for a week-long program featuring high-profile speakers and experts. Starting Sunday, students will study topics including economics, monetary policy, foreign policy, and the Constitution under the mentorship of experts such as John Yoo, Shelby Steele, and Niall Ferguson.

In a Friday interview with the Washington Examiner, Hoover senior fellows Joshua Rauh and Scott Atlas discussed the importance of investing in policy education for young people, especially in the era of heightened partisanship, rising populism, and social media.
