Description
"What is the purpose of education? Though many now recognize the need for reform in our universities, few have taken the trouble to engage this crucial question. And it is even rarer to find an administrator or dean who can articulate a persuasive answer that withstands scrutiny." "In this critique, Hugh Mercer Curtler argues that the purpose of education - enabling students to achieve intellectual autonomy, and thus true freedom - has been forgotten. Furthermore, he argues that any renewal of American civil society depends on the renewal of American education, for only when our students learn to become truly autonomous can they act as free and responsible citizens."--Jacket.
