Do you hate the liberal arts?
Their importance in college was really emphasized after World War II, as many of the leading Nazis were seen as non-intellectuals without moral restraints developed by the study of history, philosophy, theology, etc.
Liberal Arts should be cheap you’re right, but it also should be required.
- superquest 9y agoA big problem with liberal arts currently is it is burgeoning with new fields of study that are truly political movements masquerading as scholarship -- where liberal arts should only be motivated by the search for truth. So in a sense, the liberal arts aren't the liberal arts anymore.
- Stanish 9y agoThe humanities are inherently political. This isn't an argument for their annihilation, it's an argument for their diversification.
