Abstract
The unanticipated and unwelcome detour precipitated by the economic recession comes at a time of vulnerability for American higher education. Questions of educational purpose have been raised with increasing urgency over the last quarter century, and they have catalyzed promising new thinking and new experimentation. Recent years have seen encouraging progress in shaping an agenda for undergraduate liberal education that will more effectively produce graduates who are prepared to grapple, imaginatively and responsibly, with complex challenges they will face throughout their lives. Yet progress in disseminating these ideas has been painfully slow. We can hope that the current economic crisis may be the impetus institutions of higher learning have needed to become experiential learning organizations.
