In a highly entertaining manner, John E. Seery showcases the precarious successes of a well-rounded liberal arts college education, while at the same time signaling some of the dangers that loom on the horizon. Seery contends that the liberal arts are best pursued within the face-to-face interactive setting, characteristic of the small college classroom, as opposed to the large university lecture hall. Moreover and more provocatively, he identifies political theorists as the proper custodians and practitioners of the liberal arts tradition as it unfolds today. It is the unfettered freedom of the small liberal arts college, where vision and practice can actually coincide, that makes it the embodiment of the advantages of the American higher education system?a national treasure deserving of support. 606 $aEducation, Humanistic$zUnited States 606 $aEducation, Higher$xPolitical aspects$zUnited States 606 $aEducation, Higher$xAims and objectives$zUnited States 615 0$aEducation, Humanistic 615 0$aEducation, Higher$xPolitical aspects 615 0$aEducation, Higher$xAims and objectives 676 $a370.11/2 700 $aSeery$b John Evan$01806243 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910969895503321 996 $aAmerica goes to college$94355309 997 $aUNINA LEADER 00774nam a2200217 i 4500 001 991004403624107536 005 20251029101554.0 008 251029s2023 it e 011 0 ita d 020 $a9788800750370 040 $aBibl.
