New Criterion on Higher Education

Posted by Anthony Paletta

Look to the latest New Criterion, focused on liberal education, for some incisive writing on the modern academy and its afflictions:

Our own Jim Piereson, reviewing Education's End, in "Liberalism vs. humanism"
Alan Charles Kors' fascinating and depressing account of his long experiences in the academy in "On the sadness of higher education"

Charles Murray on our extravagant educational expectations in "The age of educational romanticism"

more also from Victor Davis Hanson, Robert Paquette, and Roger Kimball. Take a look.
