What
will they learn? This report suggests that an increasing number of
America's most influential colleges and universities are requiring less
than in previous generations in the areas of composition, literature,
foreign language, US government and history, economics, mathematics and
science. In short, the very areas that the Academy has established as a
floor for building a robust liberal arts education. It further
articulates why this trend ought to be of concern to the culture,
parents, students, business and political leaders of the West. Also
linked under our recent articles section is an excellent essay by
professor Stanley Fish that adds further concern about the education
that awaits the next generation.
