Yes, very interesting article, a subject close to my heart.

Do you know who coined "educational perennialism"?

:Perennialists believe that one should teach the things of everlasting importance to all people everywhere. ... Therefore, one should teach principles, not facts.

The above strikes me as a pretty obvious nonsequitur. (There are plenty of facts that everybody should know.) Is that actually what real perennialists say?
