In this episode, we’re taking a field trip into New York City for a sugar rush and some serious higher-ed talk. We recap our night at the 92nd Street Y, where legendary anchor David Muir interviewed higher-ed expert Jeff Selingo about his new book, Dream School. We dive into the surprising college connection between these two media icons (hint: it all started in a dorm room at Ithaca!) and tackle the "Brand Name Trap"—the immense pressure students feel to chase elite rankings over a "perfect fit." From Emma’s bold move to recruit celebrity guests to some serious confusion over marshmallow-topped hot chocolate at Glacé, this episode is the perfect mix of professional insight and father-daughter banter. Whether you’re eyeing the Ivies or looking for a hidden gem, join us as we redefine what a "wonderful school" really looks like.
