Anyone else applying for this summer's course?

 No.80055

Is there a curriculum where they actually give out degrees? Their website/youtube gives the impression that they just do lecture circuits. I dont see a sign up page anywhere.

I'm not enrolled, and don't plan to be. It's a personal choice, as I can learn very well on my own and hate to have a more organized schedule than I need to have.

I believe they give out a certificate or similar. I've heard good things about the program from a couple who have taken it, so I'm applying.

Alright for those that do end up going, try to get them to give a little shout out to /liberty/ during a recorded lecture. Or get Bob or another speaker to hold up a /liberty/ time stamp after a lecture.

I agree with the other anon. It's a fantastic idea, whoever goes must write 8ch.net/liberty/ on their chest or their girlfriend's chest with big bold letters and take their clothes off during the lecture.

Let's keep the tradition alive boys, we can't just let /leftypol/ monopolize the cringe market!

These are nice if you're new to the whole shebang, but after you've been to one, if you're not in academia, you've been to them all in my honest opinion. I did the Challenge of Liberty version of this through the Independent Institute a few years back. It's nice, but honestly a waste of time and money if you aren't an academic or going into politics as a career.

These guys are more practical to be honest if you want to get into some libertarian shit that's borderline-agorist. Tuition is I think $11,000 for the year (it's a 9 month program), they do it by application to ensure that only people they think they can help get in, and after your first three months of intensive training they stick you at a partner business at $14/hour with a near-guarantee to get raised to minimum $40k/year salary upon finishing the program if you didn't fuck up horribly. Had some friends do it. They have a 97% success rate if I recall correctly.


 No.80127

>>80126

Oh, if the business tries to swindle them and offer you less than $40k/year salary, they'll help you find another job since they consider that a failure on their part to vet their business partners.*

Good advice, anon. Thinking of going into finance I'm in uni right now, would some program like this be beneficial?


 No.80134

>>80132

Their main focus is on teaching people how to market themselves and teaching them entrepreneurial skills that you can use for the rest of your life. I know one guy who did the program and became the vice president of a multimillion company at age 23, and I know another guy who did it and turned into a druggy burnout after working at his business he was assigned to for about four months after the program said burnout is still better off than most burnouts since he has side gigs and online fronts he uses to bring in a modicum of income due to his training, but he's still one bad month away from couch surfing, and the lack of a degree is hurting him in finding other professional jobs.

If you don't really have problems with that marketing/entrepreneurial end, it might just be a waste of time other than maybe the access to their private social media network of Praxis students and alumni. If you can pass the "live out of a car for a month" test that is, you want something badly enough you're willing to live out of your car for a month to get it or if you're lacking experience in those things, it could prove useful. I considered it, but they're more focused on the soft skills and I don't really need more soft skills for technician work. Just note that the more narrow of a field/job title you're looking for, the harder of a time the program will have for placing you somewhere decent.

From what I've seen from their larping feels/datamining threads most of them are college students not even past their third year and earn nothing. Others are State employees making a decent living. Third are STEMfags looking down on the other brainlets of the world also making a decent living.

Nobody here takes Prager seriously. They publish shit that condemns us. You could have not made it more obvious you know absolutely nothing about the board and Libertarians in general. Wolff is hardly "btfoing" anybody with weekly emotional appeals to his circlejerking audience.

>You all just salty

If we're the salty ones, why are you the one wasting your time hanging around a board diametrically opposed to every one of your views? It's rather telling that you spend all your time having adversarial and unproductive conversations with people that hate you. What, is your life so empty that strangers on the internet calling you a dumbass the closest you can get to social stimulation? Or do you just get a hard-on from being a keyboard warrior, fantasizing about how through shitposting, you're doing your part to bring about the proletariat revolution?

Well the first one somewhat applies to me (definitely math-inclined but I'd rather not make claims about my own intelligence), hopefully I can get the internships and experience to make it count. Wouldn't be against doing #4 either, travelling is always cool.

Just out of curiosity, where did you get your college degree? Also I don't need to pay shit because I'm going on scholarship.


 No.89147

Well, this is a bit late but I very much enjoyed myself. Lectures were informative, got to ask the faculty some questions, but the real gem here is the other students. It's really a refreshing experience to spend a week secure in the knowledge that you can speak on equal terms with just about anyone you meet, and the closest anyone gets to being a lefty is a few night-watchmen minarchists. If you can find time to go, I would highly recommend attending next year's session.

 No.90727

Nice. Will you be joining us next year? You're more or less guaranteed to get a scholarship as long as you're not brain-dead, so as long as you can get yourself over there it's free.

When you submit an application to the program you're considered for a scholarship (tuition, room, and board). I got one, and I believe everyone I talked to got one as well, so I have to assume anyone that's read a few books on Austrian econ is pretty likely to get one. Assuming you do, the only thing you'd have to pay for is air fare to get yourself to Auburn, and whatever shekels you spend on merchandise and books and the like.
