- W2074335457 abstract "F OR a number of years faculties of liberal arts colleges have been devoting much time to an analysis of the objectives of their institutions. The need to re-define and clarify the aims and purposes of instruction in the liberal arts colleges has been imposed by a number of developments which, for the purposes of this paper, merit only passing mention. For example, the student body of the last few years lacks the uniformity of preparation and certainty of purpose which it formerly had. The state universities have inaugurated programs of guidance and individual attention which threaten to invalidate some of the advantages traditionally associated with modest sized liberal arts colleges. Also, teachers' colleges which formerly functioned only as specialized services for teacher training programs are expanding their curriculum offering in directions overlapping that of colleges. The sensitivity of the colleges to this new and evolving situation has, then, promoted in many cases a healthy and vigorous attempt to set up a definite set of objectives. The next step has been to scrutinize the current program in an effort to determine how well the objectives decided upon are already being realized. A third consideration has been the discussion of ways and means of overcoming deficiencies in the actual curriculum offering. Perhaps in the majority of colleges these discussions have served, and will continue to serve, merely as forums at which argumentative faculty members sharpen their wits and the efficiency-plus get bored. But in some instances, a genuinely new program, or at least an old program with new emphasis, has been or is in the process of being evolved. Although the wording of the objectives vary, there seems to be general agreement to some degree at least on most of the following: (1) Proficiency in written and oral English. (2) An understanding of the significance of the social sciences. (3) An understanding of the significance of science and the scientific method. (4) An appreciation for esthetic values. (5) An appreciation for idealistic and ethical values. (6) Interpretation of vocational and professional values and potentialities involved in the liberal arts program. (7) A working reading knowledge of a foreign language." @default.
