On Rediscovering the Liberal Arts Curriculum.

Schurr, George M.

Liberal Education, v65 n3 p333-40 Fall 1979

Liberal arts colleges have abandoned their goal of education for the university-college model of education-for-a-job. The need for a new model is discussed. Colleges need to establish a central theme: "a curricular career of learning how to learn and accepting the responsibilities of leadership." (Author/MLW)
