Campus Essays on Liberal Arts

Engaged with the Liberal Arts: Faculty/Staff Essays

Many agree that the liberal arts are vital to higher education today.  The meaning of the liberal arts, however, is specific in many ways to the campus context and its various facets, both curricular and co-curricular or experiential.  In these Campus Essays, faculty and staff share their visions of the significance of the liberal arts in their own lives, in the lives of High Point students, and in the life of the university as a whole.
