Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is a meditation on what the college should be and might become. It addresses the urgent necessity of rethinking the purposes and methods of undergraduate education. Reflecting the author's extensive service on college boards and committees, the volume brings together the author's thoughts and proposals for the "reshaping of undergraduate education as a liberal art." The book evaluates the present state of undergraduate education in the liberal arts, examines the possibility of rethinking the form and substance of the curriculum, and considers the underlying aims and purposes of liberal education. In doing so, it examines a wide range of issues, including the need for institutional reorganization, the relationship between the college and the community, and the ongoing integration of women and minorities. It considers in detail the development of a curriculum, the need to rethink the liberal arts, the pursuit of lifelong learning, and the place of education in world affairs. The book concludes by affirming the ongoing mission and enduring importance of liberal education in preparing students for a life rich in fulfillment and meaning.
