Synopsis
In a surprise announcement last week, the College Board declared they are cutting out the whole first half of the AP World History curriculum (a.k.a. Periods I, II, & III). The course is now going to be just World History from 1450 CE. We think this is a truck load of bullshit. Tune in to find out exactly what kind of bullshit this is as well as a few reasonable arguments in favor of this change. However, we mostly want to hear from you. Please leave us a comment with your thoughts on the change. Or, if you’d like to leave a voicemail that we can play during our next episode send an email to ontopoftheworldhistory@gmail.com, a twitter message to @podhistory, or a message on our facebook page.
