Lynton, Ernest A. – Journal of General Education, 1991
Argues against formalized liberal learning or general education core curricula. Posits that the expertise needed in most higher level occupations is broadening, owing to changes in the nature of organizations and work itself. Suggests that the student major should be reexamined, broadened, and given greater social context. (DMM)
