What will they learn? This report suggests that an increasing number of America's most influential colleges and universities are requiring less than in previous generations in the areas of composition, literature, foreign language, US government and history, economics, mathematics and science. In short, the very areas that the Academy has established as a floor for building a robust liberal arts education. It further articulates why this trend ought to be of concern to the culture, parents, students, business and political leaders of the West. Also linked under our recent articles section is an excellent essay by professor Stanley Fish that adds further concern about the education that awaits the next generation.
