“Superficial scholars…”

by on Jan.23, 2011, under Leadership, Policy

We commend to you a very nice opinion piece appearing in the Friday Washington Post written by Heather Wilson.

A graduate of the Air Force Academy, a Rhodes scholar and former U.S. representative from New Mexico, Wilson comments on the quality of students emerging from today’s universities, and in particular on their ability to focus on a big picture, understand trends and then determine courses of action necessary to achieve important goals. (Here’s a teaser: she observes that there are problems in our system.)

Based on the title of her piece, we first did a double take and had to quickly see if she was talking about College Park’s new I-series component of General Education.
