Description

A new generation of educators envisions a liberal arts education that benefits everyone. In this book, they make an honest reckoning with the history and current state of the liberal arts. The liberal arts have faced criticism for being out of touch with modern needs, but their value lies in teaching people to think critically and learn from diverse perspectives. The authors explore how ancient voices can inform contemporary issues like climate change, social justice, and economic inequality. By reimagining what a liberal arts education looks like, this book offers practical solutions for inclusivity and relevance.
