"General educaton has been an essential part of American higher education for a long time. Unfortunately, it is often seen as something to'get out of the way' so that the student can go on to take the more 'important' courses within a chosen major. This way of thinking does a disservice to the student, the student's learning, and the overall expectations for a baccalaureate degree." (From the Editor)
In our on-going discussion of baccalaureate culture, this is relevant reading. It was recommended for the library by Henriette Pranger.
