Don't Just Talk About It, Daniel R. Kroll

Perspectives (1969-1979)

Like the weather, everyone seems to be talking about General Education but no one seems to be doing anything about it. For that matter many administrators wonder just what General Education really is. When an educator can remark that "General Education is anything outside a student's major," it is time for a redefinition of the constituent which distinguishes a baccalaureate degree from a trade school diploma.

An Interdisciplinary Humanities Program As An Approach To Literature, Frederick F. Ritsch

Perspectives (1969-1979)

Let me conclude with a statement from Maxwell Goldberg, the author of Design in Liberal Learning: "Without becoming amorphous or aimless," writes Professor Goldberg, "we are trying to replace the static, mechanical, closed-system, monistic, and self-contained routine thinking of conventional liberal learning with the open-structured, pluralistic, multilinear, multilectic thinking of the new liberal learning." He provides us with an excellent metaphor here: the concept of "freedom flowing into form."* And I might add, in our case we do not seek a "new humanism," but rather seek to revitalize the presentation of that humanism which is an integral part of …

The Presence And Promise Of The New Consciousness, Benjamin Mehrling

Perspectives (1969-1979)

The counter culture controversy-that is, the claims and denials over the arrival of a new kind of person, a new breed, a new sensibility- widely discussed in the late sixties, has reached a new level of intensity. The critics are now taking the initiative, putting forward arguments intended to show either that the youth movement has been faddish, ladened with contradictions, and a luxury of the "elitists," or that it never did exist except in the imaginations and wishes of its identifiers and "discoverers."

I believe the critics have largely failed to take into account just what the discoverers of …
