The Teacher's Role in Liberal Education

Authors

James Redfield, University of Chicago

Abstract

Liberal Education does not concern itself with the process by which people come to be able to do what is required of them; liberal education is the process by which people come to be excellent. Servile education makes a man useful to other people; liberal education makes him satisfactory to himself.
