Integration as the New (General Education)

Abstract

The story of American higher education in the 21st century is told in many ways.  Some versions offer up a transcendental beacon of hope for our collective future prosperity, while other more widely circulated ones read like a faltering tale of desperation and despair.  Of course, the truth likely falls somewhere in the middle, which makes sustained efforts to intentionally explore—and reshape—the nature of current and future educational efforts all the more relevant.
