The case for a liberal education
May. 9, 2014 Boston Globe
IS C THATS all I have to type before the search engine jumps to Is college worth it? I hit return, and there are more articles on this question than even I, a college president, want to read. Pundit after pundit (most of whom have had the benefit of a liberal education) question whether so many Americans should be going to college. Pulling the ladder up after theyve already made the climb, they cant seem to see why future students would want the same opportunities that they’ve had.
