Boston Globe: Road scholar finds home at MIT. A fascinating story about a boy who learned while traveling the country with his father, and is now an assistant professor at MIT.

He will explain, with a sweet smile, that our society is far too age- segregated: ”It is my single passive political stance,” he said - and argues that a lot of other people could do what he does if they had the same encouragement.

Amen to that!
