"Overall,
college education seems a matter of mastering a complex body of knowledge for a
very short time only to rather soon forget everything except a few disjointed
elements." Can't agree more:(
"The goal
of the course is simply that they have had close encounters with some great
writing." I always see myself lucky when reading Homer or SophoclesXD
"College education is a proliferation of such possibilities: the beauty of mathematical discovery, the thrill of scientific understanding, the fascination of historical narrative, the mystery of theological speculation. We should judge teaching not by the amount of knowledge it passes on, but by the enduring excitement it generates."
Can I ask the school to send this article to all professors?
