Abstract | Though liberal education has assumed many forms across different times and places, it has always been concerned with important educational aims: cultivating intellectual and ethical judgment, helping students comprehend and negotiate their relationship to the larger world, and preparing graduates for lives of civic responsibility and leadership. On the merits, then, we might expect that liberal education would be the uncontested preference of virtually everyone who goes to college. Higher education reform efforts are positioning the academy to provide a practical and engaged liberal education for the increasing numbers of students enrolling in colleges and universities. This position paper was the key text guiding the 2004 annual meeting. (ERIC). |
