Lunch and Learn: The Liberal Arts College presented by Johnathan Green, Provost, IWU
The “Liberal Arts College” is a uniquely American contribution to higher education. Universities around the world are using it as a best-practice model for educational reform at a time when U.S. media are challenging its value. This session will provide a brief history of liberal education and provide compelling evidence that it is more relevant than ever before in preparing students for “the real world.”
Bring your brown bag lunch to the Museum’s series, featuring engaging and enlightening topics for discussion.
