  • Life and Career Preparation Through a Liberal Arts Education Darcie
    Life and Career Preparation through a Liberal Arts Education Darcie Scales Word Count: 1169 History & Geography, Bachelor of Arts The liberal arts experience was the college environment I craved. The small classrooms, distinct learning environments, and focus on collaboration drew me like no other universities. Most importantly, public liberal arts schools, like Georgia College, make it affordable and accessible to achieve such an education. Otherwise, the private universities that dominate the liberal arts can limit the types of people who attend and require students to take on even greater debt. Of course, the most important aspect of any university is the experience within the classroom. Course layouts varied from professor to professor, making each class a new experience. Often, courses were a mixture of lecture, discussion, collaboration, and student-led topics. This lent a more well-rounded experience that is more representative of real collaborations and workplaces. Without my class experiences, I would not feel as prepared to enter graduate school or the workforce. Interdisciplinary classes allowed me to listen to well- crafted, and engaging lectures from my talented professors, and they permitted the opportunity for discussion. Several of my history professors were completely engaging, and they made history and its importance come alive for me. Additionally, many of my professors regularly guided students into discussion during lectures, but they also set aside days just for seminars that allotted time for lively discussions pertaining to the materials. In several of my history classes, we debated how primary sources affected our understanding of events and people, in addition to monographs that enlightened the subjects with others’ research.

Both regularly noticed—and were disturbed by—negative and inaccurate impressions of their major fields held by students studying other disciplines. They became interested in C. P.

  • 1 2. Classical Reception Pedagogy in Liberal Arts Education
    CUCD Bulletin 46 2017 ***Teaching the Classical Reception Revolution*** 2. Classical Reception Pedagogy in Liberal Arts Education Emma Cole University of Bristol iberal Arts degrees, sometimes called Bachelor of Arts and Sciences degrees, represent one of the fastest growing programmes in British universities. 1 The courses aim to L combine a breadth and depth of study, allowing students to gain a broad, interdisciplinary education within the arts and humanities, and sometimes also the social sciences, with a depth of expertise focused around a specific major, or pathway. In addition, they encourage students to build links between their degree and wider culture and society, incorporating internships, language modules, and study abroad trips as the norm rather than the exception and often as credit-bearing, compulsory elements. Interestingly, classicists have played a remarkably prominent role in the development of these courses.2 I myself have taught on two such programmes, and in both instances have used the Liberal Arts remit as a framework for classical reception topics. Here I discuss the pedagogical strategies I have employed in Liberal Arts modules, providing a template for other academics wishing to find homes for classical reception topics within non-classics degree structures. In addition, I demonstrate the potential that the interdisciplinary Liberal Arts curricula hold for early-career scholars wanting to engage in research-led teaching. Such teaching provides crucial formative training for junior scholars seeking to progress their academic careers, and I argue that the experience has a flow-on effect in preparing scholars for teaching in a more traditional, single-honours environment. The rhetoric surrounding British Liberal Arts degrees revolves around the importation of a US- style Liberal Arts college model.

  • January 17, 2019 Dear Writer/Publicist: I Invite You to Enter
    Great Lakes Colleges Association 535 West William, Suite 301 Ann Arbor, Michigan 48103 U.S.A. PHONE: 734.661.2350 FAX: 734.661.2349 www.glca.org January 17, 2019 Dear Writer/Publicist: I invite you to enter the Great Lakes Colleges Association (GLCA) New Writers Awards (NWA) 2020 competition for poetry, fiction, and creative non-fiction. In each category, the submitted work must be an author’s first published volume. For this year’s competition the GLCA will accept entries that bear a publication imprint of 2018 or 2019. Winning writers are announced in January 2020. For the 50th year this group of thirteen independent Midwestern colleges will confer recognition on a volume of writing in each of three literary genres: poetry, fiction, and creative non-fiction. Publishers submit works on behalf of their authors; the key criterion for this award is that any work submitted must be an author’s first-published volume in the genre. All entries must be written in English and published in the United States or Canada. Judges of the New Writers Award are professors of literature and creative writing at GLCA member colleges. The winning authors tour several of GLCA’s member colleges from which they receive invitations, giving readings, lecturing, visiting classes, conducting workshops, and publicizing their books. Because of this provision of the award, all writers must live in the U.S. or Canada. Each writer receives an honorarium of at least $500 from each college visited, as well as travel expenses, hotel accommodations, and hospitality. By accepting the award the winner is committed to visit member colleges that extend invitations.
