Dear Readers,
Let me draw your attention to an intriguing article about the peculiar value of the Liberal Arts in fostering the critical thinking skills that are so necessary in modern life. I think students in the piece speak eloquently about the wonderful things they acquire from the study of disciplines like history, English, and philosophy. Think of what an impoverished world we’d live in without the study of these subjects, and many more.
