Scott Hartley -
story in the public square

As education in STEM fields-science, technology, engineering and mathematics-has grown with the need for more "techies" in the workforce, the humanities have suf-fered. Scott Hartley argues that the future will need both "techies" and "fuzzies," indi-viduals grounded in the liberal arts and their insights into human needs and desires.

About Story in the Public Square:

Story in the Public Square is a weekly, public affairs show designed to study, celebrate, and tell stories that matter.

The show is inspired by the power of stories to shape public understanding of important issues.

For example, Harriet Beecher Stowe's novel, "Uncle Tom's Cabin," shined a crucial light on the violence and inhumanity of American slavery, fueled the abolition movement, and inspired Abraham Lincoln, upon meeting the author, to say "So you're the little woman who wrote the book that made this great war." Narrative is no less important today-though the vehicles for dissemination are much more diverse.

From a great novel to a film, a song, or even a Tweet, stories still very much impact the way the American public looks at issues.

Our show turns a critical eye to these stories and their tellers.
