This book investigates a philosophy of higher
education, which, on a
modern, international scale, occupies but a tiny
microcosm of the
world's institutions of tertiary learning.
Nevertheless, liberal arts
colleges uphold traditional values of education;
therefore, remain as
one of the last survivors of classical teaching and
learning.
Upon closer investigation, the educational values of
the ancient
world experienced a rebirth in the modern university.
First seen in
Humboldt's Germany, British institutions such as
Oxford and
Cambridge adapted the German model for English
personalities.
Upon colonization of the New World, both German and
English
influences crossed the Atlantic to permeate the
United States.
Eventually, the models of Oxford and Cambridge took
hold of
America and spawned a new breed of higher education.
This book delves into "Havenhurst College," a
pseudonym, to
examine a real liberal arts institution. For the
sake of knowledge
and the cultivation of the individual, one must hope
that this last
remnant of classical teaching and learning will
survive.
