...Liberal Arts education and a changing time Today, an education is deemed necessary to get a good paying job, at least that is what our parents told us growing up. Although, our parents failed to mention the most important part, an education is more than going to school to get a job that pays well, it is where you find your place in the world, where some find lifelong friends, and many find what they love in life. With all of the new technological advancements going on around us, it seems that with all that change, education is also evolving. Back when only high class men attended universities, the middle class moderate never had a chance to get a higher education. Things like, “How quickly do i want to achieve my degree?” And “What do i want to major in?” Were not topics of conversation, but that is not the case in this modern world. Now a days, there are hundreds of Vocational “training” schools popping up what seems to be everyday. They are career specific schools, with little or no emphasis on the humanities. They are broadcast frequently on our television commercials with catchy slogans and songs, “Get your degree online in less than 10 months” and “Don’t wait! call now for a quick, easy and affordable college degree!” Are all of these readily accessible “training schools” really helping our society flourish? Or are they having a negative effect on the future of our country? But I must debate that college is a place of development, and should not be a school of fast paced...

...Going into college you rarely hear anyone say ‘I want to pursue an education in the liberal arts.’ You may hear students interest in majors such as business, or nursing, or even engineering, but never liberal arts. Why is that? An education in liberal arts is just as important, if not more, as an education in any other field. Allow me to explain why. The liberal arts teaches more than just one general skill. It of course provides a general education, however, it also provides an advantage in written and oral communication, interpersonal skills, problem solving, critical and analytical thinking, and adaptability to change. When entering the job market employers are generally attracted to those with these attributes. The purpose of a liberal arts education is not to train you for a specific job, but to prepare you for the world of work with an invaluable set of skills. Earning a liberal education is very advantageous not only to one’s career, but one’s life as well. Leo Strauss described liberal education as ‘education in culture or toward culture.’ I could not help but agree. Since attending a liberal college and taking a course in liberal arts, I have been exposed to many new things. I got to hear classical music live from a world-renowned violinist, see a contemporary dance performance, read literature from writers such as Tolstoy and Machiavelli, and experience many other wonderful events. I am sure some may think ‘well what’s so important about culture...

...Technological University of the Philippines COLLEGE OF LIBERAL ARTS Ayala Boulevard, San Marcelino Street, Ermita, Manila PLANT TOUR 2013 (Villar Foundation, Hino, and Gardenia) Submitted to: Dr. Noel B. Hernandez Submitted by: Evangelista, Kris Lianne N. BAM IM 4L E October 12, 2013 PLANT TOUR 2013 (Villar Foundation, Hino, and Gardenia) I. INTRODUCTION Plant tour is define as a visit to a place (such as museum, warehouses, factory, etc.) that is made by the school or professors for their students to learn about something. Plant visit allows students to build a better understanding of a site’s or plant’s performance potential; to assess a competitor, to communicate the company’s performance, strategy, and current challenges. Even people who know that plant tours are valuable can find it difficult to put them to effective use. First, unclear objectives often turn touring into tourism. If visitors don’t know why they are taking a tour and what they hope to accomplish on it, they won’t know where to focus their time and effort. Second, many people lack an organizing framework to structure observations and accelerate learning. Without such a framework, the myriad observations made during a tour cannot easily weave together and will not readily yield general conclusions. Third, information about plants and how to tour them is inevitably comparative; and those who have seen more, see more. Inexperience makes it difficult for younger...

...Living and Working in the U.S. 09/20/2012 Summary of Chapter two In the beginning of chapter two, the author imminently to convey that America is “land without limits”. It is main themes of America--freedom, as the policeman said to the Russian in the part of movie we watched in class, “Here is America, he can do anything he want.” The freedom not only exists in human rights, but also exists in human willings, such as moving into place that people would like to live, choosing jobs that people would like to enjoy, and so on. Then, the author put emphasis on Americans’ personalities in workplace. First one, nothing is impossible. Americans think they can do anything. Afterwards, the author mentioned the second personality of Americans in the workplace, just a matter of effort. In my opinion, the second one is the base of the first one; in other words, Americans believe in themselves, failure is from a lack of effort. They can do anything by hard working. For instance, professor Ross mentioned an example of “nothing is impossible”--in several years ago, Boston Celtics won the champion in NBA, when they were celebrating, KG yelled, “ Nothing is impossible! Nothing is impossible.” It expressed that they trained hardly, and tried their best to win every single game. By the way, I think it was a kind of advertisement, because “Nothing is impossible” is slogan of Adidas, and Adidas was sponsor of KG. Next, the author said...

...Wednesday, Sep 3, 2014 06:15 AM CST Robert Reich: College is a ludicrous waste of money The former secretary of labor on our broken higher ed model and how we can open more gateways to the middle class Robert Reich, ROBERTREICH.org This originally appeared on Robert Reich's blog. This week, millions of young people head to college and universities, aiming for a four-year liberal arts degree. They assume that degree is the only gateway to the American middle class. It shouldn’t be. For one thing, a four-year liberal arts degree is hugely expensive. Too many young people graduate laden with debts that take years if not decades to pay off. And too many of them can’t find good jobs when they graduate, in any event. So they have to settle for jobs that don’t require four years of college. They end up overqualified for the work they do, and underwhelmed by it. Others drop out of college because they’re either unprepared or unsuited for a four-year liberal arts curriculum. When they leave, they feel like failures. We need to open other gateways to the middle class. Consider, for example, technician jobs. They don’t require a four-year degree. But they do require mastery over a domain of technical knowledge, which can usually be obtained in two years. Technician jobs are growing in importance. As digital equipment replaces the jobs of routine workers and lower-level professionals, technicians are needed to install, monitor, repair, test, and upgrade all the equipment. ...

...General education courses are those courses that are not related to student’s major coursework. Liberal Art Colleges use these courses to help develop students personalities so that they have a broader way of thinking instead of operating like a mindless robot and spitting out textbook information that has no substance behind it. I believe these courses allow students to be well rounded individual’s that can adapt to any circumstance they are placed in. Instead of focusing on your major requirements students get the chance to be exposed to other majors and for those that are undecided on a path this is a good opportunity for them. It helps them to decide on a major or even pick a minor. After graduation it is important that students leave with a set foundation of skills that will allow them to be successful in their personal and professional lives. Besides English 400 I have also taken dual enrollment in high school that allowed me to satisfy two requirements by earning a credit for twelfth grade English and the requirement for college level English. When I took dual...

...Technical writing BCOR 220 Salma Kammoun G10 Research Paper Humanities and Business Complementarity Studying business includes accounting, finance, marketing, decision making and many other subjects. Students are only majoring in one of them due to the system that ignores the cultural part of education: Humanities. Dealing with languages, literature, History and Philosophy can have a great impact on the future employees business schools are forming which also helps on creating a better business environment. The classical curriculum should change to combine business and humanities in order to get multifunctional employees that have the ability to communicate and work in different environments, the capacity of acting properly in multiple situations and the ability to deal with the complex world we are living in. Learning foreign languages, literature and making cultural studies open one’s mind not only on others’ lifestyles, but also on their traditions and daily behavior. When working in multinational companies, an employee should be ready to deal with colleagues with different cultures and others that do not speak the same language as he does. So, being able to adapt oneself to those situations requires a certain knowledge that can be retained by studying humanities in business schools. Besides the oral part, writing is a necessity in communication. “Writing well is a fundamental principle of the communications business, deeply appreciated by clients...

...Last week we read and article titled “Why We Need the Liberal Arts?” by Joseph R. Urgo from The Baltimore Sun. This article brought up many interesting propositions such the need for a liberal arts education and how it affects our way of thinking to a more creative and abstract thought process. The article also emphasized the need to encourage “Our nation’s best and brightest students, contemplating on the dedication of a four years to the highest level of cognitive challenge,” says the author, “are discouraged by a contingent of their elders and asked to consider something more practical.” Why discourse or let down someone who is trying to reach their fullest potential not what is practical. I agree with the author in saying that abstract thinking creativity are a tremendous way for young adults about to enter the real world. I believe that one day these young adults will run into a situation where they will need these abstract, creative thinking to the test. Practical studies on the other hand are a way to get your four years find a job the make a decent pay where as liberal arts jobs are more fun and intriguing to intelligent brilliant minds. As the author reads from an insight a student was told,“What can you do with a degree in philosophy? English?...
