Articles liés à The College (Classic Reprint)
Synopsis
In the midst of an American education revolution, this book thoughtfully engages with the urgent questions surrounding the nature and future of the college. The author, a respected college president and prominent figure in the education reform movement, analyzes contemporary college debates and challenges some of the most widely held assumptions of the time. Through a close examination of quantitative data and historical context, the author argues powerfully against shortening the college course and advocates for the preservation of a robust, four-year college experience. With an eye toward future educational advancements, the author also discusses the benefits of coeducation and maintains that the best results of college life are found in residential settings which create a unique blend of academic and social immersion. The arguments put forward in this book challenge conventional wisdom around higher education, proposing instead a thoughtful and nuanced approach centred on the unique value of the traditional college experience, with a view towards cementing the college as a cornerstone of American society.
