“We (Stanford University<\/a>) can learn from Habib’s Liberal Arts model and especially the Liberal Core which says, _if you (students) want to be an engineer, it’s good, but we will make sure to equip you with more options for future.” <\/strong>were the thoughts by Dr. Alexander Key, Associate Professor of Arabic and Comparative Literature and Director of Stanford, Humanities Core on: Liberal Arts Education: Myths and Misconceptions<\/em>, today at Habib University<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Dr. Key continued by saying, \u201cLiberal Arts education is a label used for small, elite, teaching focused institutions in the US.\u201d Yet, it is an essential element in preparing young 18 to 24 year-old individuals in facing the issues afflicting the world, explained Dr. Key.<\/p>\n

As an institution, \u201cYou want students to leave after 4 years and be successful and the best way to do is to give them options for what they want to do with their lives for the next 10-20 years,\u201d said Dr. Key. This is where a liberal arts education is so important, as it provides students an opportunity to engage with a breadth of knowledge and flexibility in learning.<\/p>\n
